After we finished the stressful Victoria life (see example) and celebrated the intl. 'Talk like a Pirate Day' on Sept. 19th...

Typical Victoria day:
08:30 Get-up with hangover
09:00 Kellogg's massacre
10:00 12km beach run (<1h)
13:00 Pitcher beer and snack
15:00 Kayaking (2h)
17:00 2nd Pitcher beer
18:30 Sushi massacre
20:30 0.5L Jack Daniels
21:00 Meet the girls
22:00 Nightlife with tackling
??? Smished

(Or just meet a Playboy pornstar in Victoria or run a half marathon (21.1km, <2h)just for fun)


...we took the seeplane to Vancouver


Vancouver is an awesome city, only the yearly amount of 1200mm rain (Munich: 600mm) could be a reason not to live here. The good thing is, it only rains once a year, means is starts in October/November and ends in April/May :)

Some best practices in Vancouver:
1) Go to Irish Heather in Gastown, drink a coffee with Bailey's and Jameson whiskey
2) Go to a movie wrap-up party, see Owen Wilson
3) Go to Roxys, there's always somethin' goin' on!

Pirate life @ Victoria, B.C.

Greg and Sascha are enjoying the PIRATE Life in Victoria! FlipFlops, shorts'n shirt, running, blading, drinking, gym, kayaking, drinking, party, volleyball, party, nature, sun, girls...

Victoria, BC - the place 2 be!

Best practices @ Victoria: Strathcona Hotel with rooftop and Beach volleyball fields, Mr. Hawaii push-ups and xtreme girl tackling...

Yes we're alive // Ja, wir leben noch!

In a nutshell: Toronto is very slow - some rare nice spots, but you need a few days 2 figure that out (well, women are ok :-)...you want party? GO 2 Seattle.

Seattle is so far awesome - very nice & open minded and layed back people, cheap alcohol, great location and party everywhere.

Tonight we check the location on the picture...


Ratzfatz: Toronto in Kanada ist mal ne langweilige Stadt - gibt nur einige gute Plaetze und man braucht Tage um sie zu entdecken (Maedels sind aber ok :-)

Zum Party machen: Ab nach Seattle - da geht einiges, heute Abend zum Beispiel 'siehe Bild...'

Cheers,
Sascha

Canada - we're comin'!

Greg & I are ready to enjoy the golden summer in Canada! Stay tuned for the latest pictures and news...!

So, nur noch 4 Tage und dann rocken wir Kanada! Immer am Ball bleiben damit ihr die neusten Updates und Bilder mitbekommt!

The DARK KNIGHT...

Was watching the movie "Batman - The Dark Knight" a few minutes ago...

Go for it one of the best movies ever, really (even if u don't like the superhero shit)...the movie is a kind of smart and Heath Ledger worth an Oscar (if he wouldn't have killed himself shortly after the movie ;-)

Anyway - check out the picture, but GO to watch this masterpiece soon!
Children? Well, maybe 12 to 16 years is suitable...14 is maybe the best age.

Aircast & crutches are history...

Since I got rid of my nice gadgets (aka Aircast Walker & crutches) I did some extensive PARTY in MUC. I only can recommend the Max & Moritz club, the women vs. men ratio is roughly 75:25!!! IMAGINE THAT, please :-)
Kog was also joining the parties - see picture...just to get prepared for the Skiopening in Sölden :-)

Anyway...can tell u one thing: CANADA TAKE U IN 8 (and I'll come with my Lederhosen outfit due to the fact that we gonna visit the Seattle's 2nd Oktoberfest! Fasten your seatbelt!

DVD recommendation: Cocaine Cowboys!

Cocaine Cowboys
The incredible true story that inspired "Scarface" and "Miami Vice"!
In the 1980s, ruthless Colombian cocaine barons invaded Miami with a brand of violence unseen in this country since Prohibition-era Chicago - and it put the city on the map. "Cocaine Cowboys" is the true story of how Miami became the drug, murder and cash capital of the United States, told by the people who made it all happen.

Just watched it yesterday night. Unbelievable - forget Miami Vice, this is fascinating, shocking and REAL!

Unbedingt anschauen :-)!
