On Tuesday I took the day off with Colin and his girl and headed to down to Santa Clara. We went to the Great America theme park, and it was flippin’ class! There’s about 7 big rollercoasters and a ton of other fun stuff (including one of those annoying dancing cartoon character actors at the door). Slapped on plenty of sunscreen having learned the hard way last week. It was a really roasting day, probably mid 90’s and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. I was pretty exhausted at the end of the day, but it was totally worth it.
So yesterday I ordered a Macbook from the Apple site. Including tax (which Americans add on AFTERWARDS), it only came out at about £100 cheaper than buying at home. Still a saving though. Problem is Apple won’t take my card because it wasn’t issued in the US. I’m just going to have to wait and open a US bank account and pay it that way. Very, very annoying.
I’m just back from my lunch at McDonalds. The Dollar Saver menu is amazing, I got 2 double cheeseburgers, fries and the huge 42oz Coke for $4.00 (the Coke being 69c). I shall get back to work here, then I’m off to see the Fratellis at the Fillmore tonight, should be a good gig. Chao.
