LA never felt so good!

After a long travel day yesterday, I made it back to LA! I had thai and mexican food, got to see my manz, and chill out. 
Overall, the tour was awesome, I really love being on the road, not sleeping and meeting new people. I got a free workout everyday and food cooked for me! 
Next tour is going to start in Tempe, AZ and go through Texas starting mid February. Look out for the Leg 2 blogs then!

BTW, I alllllmost saw John Legend. I even talked to his bus driver and waited to see him leave his hotel... he must have passed right by me... of all the luck. But I did get a pic of his tour bus! Which looks just like ours...

Bikers + White Trash = Trouble

Before I got to Daytona Beach I thought it was going to be way awesome, that's before I saw the trash walking around. Being a vegetarian in this town did not help me at all either. We had a day off yesterday and it was delightful. I went to the beach for most of the day and tried to walk around town a little, until people kept staring at us and we got shouted at by big guys on bikes...
Here are some pics of the beach, our merchandise area, etc.
Tomorrow is Melbourne, then Orlando, then home to LA! Hooray!



Our Merchandise table... do you want a David Copperfield T? And my view from the Coral Springs hotel, the last city we were it. It was lovely.






Ducks and Daytona! The day cleared up, this was the morning fog...

Sarasota Gulf side!

First, I would like to point out that this formatting is crap. If I had known this previously, I would have picked a different blogging area. Thanks google.

We are now in Sarasota which is right on the Gulf! Really really pretty, I only wish it was a little warmer....
Here are some pictures of the trip.






My bus and the bunking area, mine is the 3rd tier on the right.


















This is the view from our current location, it's really pretty. We are planning a walk in a couple hours.





Some big booty statue in the Naples Theatre area


Me after not sleeping for 4 days.... don't I look happy?













We are staying in a hotel tonight, have 3 shows tomorrow and then we are off to Coral Springs! Mmmmm a real bed and shower....

Now leaving Fort Myers!

Good evening! Right now we are putting on our last show in Fort Myers, then heading to Sarasota tomorrow morning (technically, 1 am). After 4 days with sleep deprivation, we were able to catch up last night. I slept till 12:30.... and it felt gooood. I will post some pictures tomorrow of the bus bed situation and of some of the scenery around the towns!
Just an FYI, if you need to retire and want to hang out with other old people, Florida is where it's at. I have never seen so many old people in one area. They are pretty fun to talk to. (Mom they might need some fashion tips though, your business would be booming).

P.S. Go Obama! Yesterday was awesome, I found some prop tv and made it work. Even fuzzy, his speech was amazing and I really loved Michelle's dress!

Welcome to Naples, FL!!



Good Morning! After a long first day in Tampa, we have made it to Naples, FL! You might recognize Naples for it's Paradise Coast and Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. Or maybe not. At any rate, it's raining and we probably won't be able to venture out that much. Last night we slept on the bus for the first time, I have a little cot and it was pretty cool....
The days are long and tiring but everyone here is awesome and it's fun being part of a team again.
Here are a couple pics of the girls I work with directly, we had a little off time.





Fort Myers tomorrow!

The adventure begins this Saturday!

On Saturday I will begin my journey  around the world (if I don't f it up) with the Magic of David Copperfield. Oh the illusions! 
I know everyone is going to miss me... a lot. The usual. So this blog will let you in on my adventures, my sore muscles, my cramped bus quarters, etc. 

Warning: You may get severely jealous of me, for that I am not sorry at all. Go ahead and cry.
