Finally We're in Pittsburgh...

We've just landed in Pittsburgh not long ago and it's quite cold over here, but I'm relieved to have landed cos' I'm just  sick of getting on and off planes and being forced to sit in a confined space for a few hours.
Above: No vege in sight!
Above: You don't like LCCT? Don't complain cos this is the line to the check-in counters.
Above: San Andreas International LA International.
Above: Massive massive LA. Buildings everywhere for miles.
Above: Look, it's a giant cake with white icing!
Above: Pretty mountains.

    Anyway, had a very meaty American buffet breakfast at our hotel and left LA at approximately 3.00pm LA time this afternoon for Vegas. Unfortunately we were only in Vegas for a transit. Now as I have mentioned, LA International is really a shit airport, there is nothing much to eat there, nothing much to see. It is kinda like San Andreas International from GTA IV minus the massacres, it's also funny how everybody speaks in the American accent similar to the one in GTA IV.
That aside, Vegas International was more interesting, even though we just spent less than 20 minutes there rushing from gate to gate, there were restaurants all along the way. Also, there are of course slot machines available throughout the airport....c'mon, it's Las Vegas, the Sin City. The 1 hour flight from LA to LV and the 4 hour flight from LV to Pittsburgh were terrible. If you think Air Asia is too budget for you. This is 10x worse. They even budgeted on the air crew. Fat, bald old men with beer bellies and fat old women as flight attendants. It was as if they picked their air crew out of a bin of retired flight attendants. To add to the misery, the plane smelt like a mix of smelly armpits and old man juice. The only nice thing to help me forget about all that was the view from the LA-LV flight. It was amazing, snowcapped mountains and rocky hills, and I never realised how massive LA was until I looked at it from above and believe me LA is humungous.
Above: There's the tower thing, and the glass pyramid thing...get me off this plane!
Above: Something new, slot machines in airport.
   Well, now I'm in my cosy hotel room just near to the University of Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh seems like a nice city, pretty architecture and nice riverside views. More updates soon. =)
