Photo Shoot: The World's Most Hated Blogger!

The infamous "World's Most Hated Blogger", Casey Serin, appeared in downtown Sacramento, holding an internet "Talkcast" with some members of the audience that his website attracts.

He certainly does have quite an interesting story....

More Mud Smearing Protest Walk Around

Due to incredible demand for more Mud Smearing Protest Walk Around....

Now this guy really had it caked on. 



NUMBER 1!

Travelscapes.com has now moved into the #1 search result for "travelscapes" at the Google.com search engine. 

That's Close Enough

When he moved his index finger up to the safety switch on the tear gas gun, I knew that was as close as I was going get.

Inducted Into Travelscapes.com Top 20 Hall of Fame!

Congratulations and welcome to R. Rae for being inducted into the infamous Travelscapes 2007 Top 20 Adult Beverage Engineering Hall of Fame!

Extremely well known from Michigan to California for one of the most outstanding Washington Apples ever made, she has helped many to achieve some of the "best-in-a-lifetime" hangovers. 

All I can say is OMG....WATCH OUT. 

Now appearing at the Torch Club on 15th Street.

 




Illegal Exposed Restaurant Tableware? Only in California

New regulations going into effect in California require (starting in July), restaurants who choose to have things like glasses, cups, plates and silverware on the table prior to customer arrival, MUST have them either covered or wrapped, or they can be upside down....or....they shall all be completely replaced!

"Excuse me sir, could you please replace all of this, it's not upside down, wrapped or covered"  ....now really, come on.  






Welcome to Pot Sticker Heaven

Yep. It's Simon's on 16th Street.

They not only serve up one helluva potsticker....
.....they have the coldest beer bottles in town (cuz its been sitting in ice since noon).

Oh and the honey walnut prawns are to die for......and so are a couple of the bartender's....
....drinks.






Proof of Connection

I always thought that there was a connection between the nose and throat.

In a wax museum there is anyway.



 

 

 

I Bought a Boat!


....full of Sushi.

Nishiki's on 16th Street.  The best!







Something is Telling Me Not to Cross That Street

It was just the way that guy was holding that big stick and looking right at me.





The Mud Smearing Protest Walk Around

Yes , Sacramento does get its share of protesting.
This one was somewhat unusual though.
The protesters would cover their bodies with mud, and just walk around the city.

Strange but true.



 

Winged Chick Seen in Capitol Park?

So I see this woman walking around in Capitol Park with these huge feather wings on.

I thought to myself, this is weird. 

So I just had to get a picture.  I asked if they were real, and she said yes....the feathers that is. 








Welcome to Travelscapes


This isn't about travel, is it?

It's about nothing, or something, or even a little in between. 

Don't think I have any idea what I am doing here, or why.  Because it really wouldn't matter anyway.

But I am Travelscaping, so feel free to climb aboard.
