All the Pic's Collage!

Welcome to Picadai because Pic-a-day was taken :(

The purpose of this blog is to help me improve my camera skills. The goal is to post one pic per day for the year and beyond (!). Hopefully the quality of the pic's will improve along with the content.

Oct 2nd Pic!

"Formed Color"

Saturday started off with a bang, went to the Arizona Science Museum, thanks to a kick-ass deal from Groupon. I experienced my first planetarium show, "The Stars of the Pharaohs"  which showed how ancient Egyptians viewed the night sky.  The first pic is from some rock sitting in a case, I would've taken a note about it but I didn't realize it turned out so cool till much later in the day.

"Domo"
We did a 3-4 hour + exploration of the Science center, they really did have some cool stuff once you get past the scores of screaming kids. Damn kids. After our exhaustive science research we decided to hit up one of our local favorite restaurants "The Roosevelt Room". A small house with great ambiance even on a muggy, hot Phoenix day, I've blogged about it before I'm sure.

"Drankin"

"Tasty!"

The best part about the restaurant is their beer selection, their list isn't extensive they only have 6 or 7 beers listed but they're all pretty good and cover the light to dark spectrum. Eva went light I went brown, of course!. 

"Roasted Beef"

It seems all of their sandwiches come with Texas toast style bread, this is the second thing I've gotten there and I must admit I was a little disappointing, The pickle it came with however was really good! 

"Carnival"

After what turned out to be a fairly grueling day we eventually found our way to "Ocktoberfest" on Tempe beach park. Prior to going though we relaxed and watched "The Blind Side" which was pretty damn good, not sure about the Best Actress Oscar however. Anyway back to the topic at hand, "Ocktoberfest" is a celebrating of drinking beer, good beer and being an overall buffoon. On Tempe beach parks "Ocktoberfest" however they got everything right except the Good beer part, we only managed to find ONE tent that served good beer, everywhere else it was some variation of Budweiser (Beh!). This place is also a money pit, $5 for even the smallest shittiest rides...whatever I grew up next to an amusement park as a kid, if I want to puke my beer out I'll go home and twirl around on my computer chair, for free! I'll charge you $4 for that privilege however.

"Carnival Cuisine"

"Bro's"

Funny Story. We were walking past the woks cooking some noodles, the woks were ablaze so we obviously stopped to take some pics, the bro on the left (drunk off his ass btw) decides to engage Eva in a conversation about how delicious the food is. After spending 10 secs talking to him, he looks at our cameras and tells the cooks that we're reporters and that we need samples of the food. The cook obeying "from the mouths of Drunks" rule promptly hooks us up with food, 2 servings anyway, then both the bros take them and promptly chomp them down! Oh well I guess they did manage to hustle the food! 

"Carnie"

"Ducks make me Sleepy"

Damn Carnies.
