That’s the picturesque seventh hole at the Resort course of La Cantera, San Antonio. It’s a short par 4 with hazards all around and a great look at Fiesta Texas as the backdrop. What you see above are our tee shots, where I was able to pull out a par. Also, big-ups to Hy for completing four years of dental school and getting his license. He’s something like Lieutenant Ben Giang D.D.S. now. Congrats buddy!
During the Rangers game, a person walks by and asks if she can take a “free photo” of you. She then gives you the URL to visit to see your picture. Of course, the picture is just a proof, and you have to spend money to get the final image. Oh so sneaky.
Three baseball games in less than three weeks. What’s wrong with me? Is it basketball withdrawal? Maybe I’m learning to appreciate the game?
I think I need another Mavericks update.
In a world where Maxim, FHM, and Victoria’s Secret exists… is the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue still relevant? Yeah, but probably more so for the the generation such as myself, that remembers when it was the only “game” in town. Well, that and the lingerie section in the JC Penny catalog. So in honor of the 2008 edition, my Fave-Five SI swimsuit models:
5. Daniela Pestova
Cover model in 1995, 2000 and 2006
4. Josie Maran
Was briefly on Dancing With the Stars, getting knocked out in the first show. I guess they are serious about the dancing.
3. Marisa Miller
The 2008 cover model was probably born in a bikini and looked good doing it.
2. Laetitia Casta
Somehow, never made it to the cover. Also seen in various VS and Guess ads.
1. Petra Nemcova
2003 cover girl, better known now as a tsunami survivor and for her charity work.
Several days late, but I wanted to post it anyway.
Day 2 was a lazy Sunday, as all Sundays should be while on vacation. The day started with the brunch of champions, Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles! 
I recommend you make your heart cry at least once in your lifetime with Roscoe’s. Their lemonade/orange juice blend was phenomenal (and probably loaded with sugar), and of course, their staple product, chicken and waffles, was heart-stopping good. I think Hai nearly fainted after he ate his. Soul food for real.
Next stop was downtown LA to visit the La Brea Tar Pits. Did I just say “the” twice? The tar pits were as uneventful as we all thought they’d be, but it was free, so we made the most of it. The LACMA is next to the tar pits, but admission wasn’t free, so we just took in the sights around it.
If you ever get a chance to visit LA, I definitely recommend visiting the Getty Center, not to be confused with the Getty Villa, which we also visited (but on a different day). Most of the pictures Mikey uploaded were from there. Simply put, the place is gorgeous. There’s a lot to explore, too, so you can spend a significant part of your day there. A must visit.
After the Getty, we tried to emulate our awesome dessert experience at Disney by going to Johnny Rockets (yes, the one on the 3rd Street Promenade). I opted for a root bear float this time around, so I have no basis for comparison, but hearing from the other guys, they weren’t too bad. Once again, the street performers were out in full force, and in front of Rockets was a pretty cool R&B jam band.
Awkwardly, Rockets was only the appetizer before our first visit to Little Saigon. We wanted to go at least once while Brett was still around. This was actually quite the adventure. It was dark outside, so I didn’t recognize any of the restaurants I had gone to the last time I was in Cali. Searching to no avail, we tried calling around to get a recommendation, as well as a little direction. Eventually, we decided to just find an open place, which worked out alright. 
That pretty much did it for Day 2. This marked the last full day Brett would be with us. We would grab brunch the next morning, and then it’s off to the airport to drop-off Brett. So how do the Hong’s spend the rest of their week in Cali? Only time (and my laziness) will tell. Well, you do have the limited number of pictures Mikey uploaded, as well.
