Disc Golf - Day 36 5:34 PM

A sport i didn't think existed nor thought i would ever play. It's as if GOLF, FRISBEE and DISCUS THROWING had a baby! You have a Frisbee shapped plastic disc you throw around a course similar to in golf, attempting to get it in a metal basket half way across the park.

A little tricky and a little skill and you will probably pick it up on hole 17...(out of 18). And you don't get any points for hitting the trees!!

I started to feel it in my throwing arm around hole 3 :)...but, I would play again only because its outdoors, fun, free and not nearly as frustrating as golf.

Tis The Season - Day 35 5:23 PM

We see them every year! we HEAR them every year and we probably never give anything.

What does one dollar really do for us?? -not nearly as much as it can do for someone else!

Tis' the season. 

Vietnamese Coffee - Day 34 12:47 PM

Ca phe da or Vietnamese coffee is made with finely ground dark roast coffee individually brewed with a small metal French drip filter into a cup containing about a quarter to a half as much sweetened condensed milk, stirred and poured over ice.
I'm not a huge coffee drinker so i don't have many references to compare it to but, all-in-all it was good. The most interesting part was that it was prepared at the table right in front of you.

A New Day, A New Bar - Day 31, 32, & 33 12:31 PM

Day 31 -
The Neighborhood: It was a very cute yet small bar. They had tons of beers on draft and really good sweet potato fries. I’m pretty sure i will be making an excuse to go back frequently because the menu looked pretty damn tasty and not to mention the hidden bar with in The Neighborhood, which led me to the next bar....

Day 32 -
Nobel Experiment: Hidden within The Neighborhood is a FREAKEN" AMAZING bar. The atmosphere is dark and relaxed, mainly because they don't allow the bar to ever get over crowded. You have to have a reservation to even sit at the bar. The bartenders know what they are doing and they have an unmatchable drink list. Anthony was our bartender for the evening, i wouldn’t trade him for anything, he knows what he is doing behind the bar 100%.  I went with  the 'rattle snake' for my first drink, made with egg white and absinthe, for those of you reading my blog, i felt it was very fitting... not to mention it was very strong "thank you Anthony".
I recommend this place a million times over and if you go i recommend you invite me :)



Day 33 -
Dublin Square: Thanks to fourSquare, pretty awesome happy hour prices and Jameson this place was pretty cool; "spend $10 get $10 off" - can't beat that deal anywhere, especially on Sunday Funday when the Chargers are playing. And you can never go wrong cheersing randoms at the bar.

Chinese Wedding - Day 31 3:46 PM

It was a very unique wedding with not one but TWO dancing dragons. I have never experienced a Chinese wedding before so I'm not sure what the meaning is behind the dragons but the tradition was a fun one to watch. Very interesting to say the least. If i start dating a Chinese man my friends better start practicing their best moves cause not only will i be looking for bridesmaids but i will also be looking for dragon dancers!!!

Mussels - Day 30 11:46 AM

Although it was a similar texture, the Mussels were way better than the oysters. I'm not sure what it was, maybe it was the sauce the mussels were bathed in or maybe it was my mood that evening...or maybe, JUST MAYBE my little taste buds are growing up because, I liked them.  

We ordered the mussels at a little bar called Starlite Bar off India Street. A very unique atmosphere and kind of an odd place to order them but, as soon as my partner-in-crime saw them on the menu there was no stopping him. He had a feeling i have yet to try them and he was not going to let me get away with it. And I’m glad he didn't. I honestly enjoyed the squishy, kinda chewy, wannabe meat.  

Extraordinary Desserts - Day 29 11:07 AM

The most delicious day yet! Extraordinary is an understatement for these desserts. First of all it’s so hard to pick just one; and yes you have to pick just one AND share, because they are huge, but they all look so freaken' amazing it’s next to impossible.

If you’re not a fruit fan they have chocolate desserts galore. If you not a chocolate fan like myself then they have tons of fruity pastries and that's exactly what we went with; a warm cobbler filled with tons of mixed berries and a crust that was to die for which ended up being our favorite part. To top it all off it came with a scoop of their recommended ice cream...Brown sugar Vanilla Bean- YUMMMMM!!
I think i found my weakness!
