As many of you who visit here regularly would know, I am often referred to as a Meguiars slvt. Unlike many who would see this as an insult, I wear it as a badge of honour Bluebiggrin.

Not being a person who likes resting on my laurels, I have thought about how I could elevate this status from mere slvt to outright wh**e. The best idea I could come up with was to undertake a trip to the Meguiars head office in Irvine, California to attend a Saturday detailing class.

So, come 19th August, I will be boarding a flight to Houston via London. From Houston I will switch to a local carrier and fly to John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, which is less than 5 miles from the Meguiars office and across the road from my hotel accommodation. Flying all that way for a one day class didn't seem worth it, so I will be staying on for a week to do some sightseeing. Some of the activities/sights lined up for the week:

Los Angeles (incl. Hollywood, Sunset Boulevard, Universal Studios)
San Diego
Disneyland
Beach communities (Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Venice Beach)
MLB game between Anaheim Angels and Tampa Bay Rays

The rest of the time will be spent driving around SoCal taking in as much of the scenery as possible. If possible I'll update with some posts while I'm over there, otherwise a full update will follow upon my return.
Jealousy is me

Ah gee thanks - I'm blushing.

At this point I'd like to thank my parents, without whom my detailing life would have been seriously curtailed, as well as..........{insert standard Oscar acceptance speech here}
Congrats Woodie Clap

Fitting you into my luggage going over shouldn't be a problem as my case will be practically empty. Bringing you back may be a challenge as the case will not be remaining empty. Bluebiggrin
Wow!! I thought I was being bullish flying up yo Jo'burg for a Megs Detailing Day a couple of years ago....but flying all the way to the States is sick.

Are you going solo or is the family accompanying you?

Don't you dare come back without pics.

Going solo this time - so I foresee much activity and little to no sleep. I'm going to be useless back at work for the first couple of days.

No worries - one 4GB card in camera and will be getting several more in the US. You guys might just regret asking for pics.

This is one of the stops on my trip, and I think I'm in for a wild ride:
Venice Beach
