Snow glorious snow
Yes, I know that it's terribly cliche to be the little African boy who delights in seeing snow for the first time but dammit, I loved experiencing snow for the first time. In fact, I wrote an entire blog about the joy of snow. I'm proud to report that even though I was out in a blizzard today I totally still ♥ snow!!

P-p-p-poker
Well you can't come to Nevada and not gamble at least a little! I had never played poker against another human before so joining a home game, coming in 3rd and winning $5 was a great experience. I don't think playing Texas Hold 'em on my phone will ever be good enough again. It's been the weirdest thing, I've had exceptionally good fortune throughout this trip. I've never won a lucky draw or a raffle in my life and yet here I won a $25 restaurant voucher at the Reno Wine Walk! How awesome is that?! Apparently in America I'm a winner!
Pissing on the Germans
Once long ago I blogged about Pastor Steve and his hatred for German men too wussified to pee standing upright. Turns out he wasn't talking crazy for once, ze Germans really do have a major bug up their asses about men standing up to pee. Now much as I hate agreeing with Pastor Steve on anything, I knew that I just had to pee standing up in Germany if the opportunity ever presented itself. Since I flew to the US via Frankfurt I had my chance and I utilized it fully!
Yes that is a real German bathroom sticker. |
The Doubledown
My trip to the US of A has been one great culinary adventure. In America the portions are as huge as they are deliciously bad for your arteries. I believe the KFC doubledown sandwich personifies the wonderful madness that is American food and I would have created a Bucket List just so I could put this magical chicken creation on it!
America! Fuck Yeah!! |

You crack me up . . . I loved your picture headings . . .
I like what you've done with your nails in the KFC picture.
Happy New Year my friend!
By the way, when I ran "cooler as ekke" through the Google translator, it translated as "cooler than components".
*scratches head*
Happy New Year to you too Gumby!
I guess Google translator is no match for South African Multi-lingual slang terms! It actually reads "Cooler than I am" and is from a song by Romantic Afrikaans Superstar rapper Jack Parow (you can find it on youtube though I doubt it would mean much to you!) where he asks the question - "Do you think you're cooler than I am?"
PS
Belated props to RandomSue for playing hand model in the KFC!
