Virgin American



Woah. This must be a new airline (or just new-to-me maybe).
I walked in to what i thought was the airplane, but turned out to be a crazy techno club with new-fangled ideas of service, electronic music above, and black-lights, flourescent, and pink lights everywhere. They dont bring you food or drinks, no-no, there's a call button for everything.

Also, they have FREE WIFI throughout the plane... so yeah... that's kind of amazing. the seats were spacious and the entertainment system seemed really cool except i slept the whole fight... so maybe on my way back. Did i mention that you can also IM other people on the plane? hook it up mile high club!

Massachusetts



I have arrived! Visiting the Mother and Sister out here on the east coast where its snowy and cold and cozy and i plan on sleeping for a week, its going to be just great.

Los Angeles

hey

So my world-traveling with GHI is over. I returned to LA where it ws nothing by non-stop fun and debauchery. I didnt take a lot of pics... but below is a pic of the dodgeball game i watched (Kristin's team "the Whorriors" are like number one).

Also, went to a drive-in with Elena and Clem, and managed to pass out through the entire movie... but its ok... i needed a nap.

Montpelier

I have not posted about Montpelier. As some of you know, i had to drive the rental cars from Paris, France to Barcelona, Spain. It was a two day drive, and on the way we stayed in Montpelier, France... just by the border of France and Spain. It was a total surprise and gorgeous and quiet and old. There was this Promenade/ Garden/ Square in the middle of town where kids were playing frisbee, and mothers were walking with their babies, and teenagers were practicing their circus tricks (i dont know why, but there were jugglers and dancers and things.)

amazing little ancient mountain town.

Riga... oh Riga


Riga is the main city we flew into. I got to spend an entire day at the airport by myself. Lucky Me! It wasn't so bad... luckily there was a photobooth at the airport (random i know). if you know me, you know it was really hard for me not to just stay in that photobooth all day long and take picture after picture. Instead i took just two sets of me doing Latvia things... like drinking Latvian water... reading a Latvian magazine... being bundled up because its cold as ice here! no really, its been negative degrees celcius everyday, which is below freezing and i think i got some frost bite on my thumb (poor little thumb).

LATVIA

Where's Latvia you ask? Well! Here's a map. The coldest and creepiest location yet!

Im sorry My friends, its been too Long

Hello out there!

I know the time between posts is getting longer and longer. Truthfully, the work has been getting harder and harder, the hours longer and longer. AND NOW ITS ENDING! that's right... im officially at the last location of season 1. WOAH! what a trip. Ive been so many cool places, and its really been life changing. Thanks to everyone for keeping up and staying in touch with your comments and phone calls. kisses to all of you.

So have you been watching the show? i believe you can catch it online at Scifi.com... just follow the Ghost hunters International link. I have only seen one or two episodes because it doesn't air anywhere we are... but what i have seen is absolutely fantastic and scary and spooky and definitely worth watching. Everyone who works on this show does an amazing job and its really one of the best experiences of my life.

Ill be galavanting around the states come middle of Feb... be sure to drop me an email if you like. Erinhickman@rocketmail.com
