Finn Hits The US of A - 2014

[Finn666]

@tvshooter:

MAN! Meeting Rafa was just plain awesome! After seeing and getting to "sort" of know someone on the internet, it was a truly a pleasure to spend "real" time together.  Yesterday was a blast.  I'm sure Raf has more pic's to post when he gets the time and more to say about his new found love for roller coasters!

well like i've already stated in my post before. it was awesome to finally get to "know" you guys in person @tvshooter ..busch garden's was dope and yeah, thanks to you guys, i'm now enjoying roller coaster rides again ^^

here some more (just a few, i'm sorry ) pics

started the day with visiting Stella's Cafe for breakfast. imo it's an awesome place.
the kinda place you want to own when you're retired

damn, this thread is dope! A little sad you wont be making it over to the West Coast though @Finn666 it would have been dope to meet up for a beer and burrito!

[Seul]

He's drinking Belgian beer in America… That's like ordering Heineken in Belgium 

[Jordan23]

Nice Pics Rafa!!!! …Ricoh?;)

[Finn666]

well then let's just do that in 2015 when I'm coming over again buddy! @deadendpro

i also had American Beer buddy @seul …ist that great though when you're used to "heavy" beer.
Samuel Adams is quiet nice and a beer called "Legend" from VA is also great! gonna post a pic of that one in the beer thread the next days!

Hell yeah! Just let me know man! and enjoy the rest of your time on the East Coast!

[Finn666]

thanks guys!

so this morning we've visited church…my granddad is a preacher and has his own church, so it was kinda obligatory to go...

right now I'm on my way up to NYC…road tripping with my cousin who lives in New Jersey!

made a quick stop and Hardee's and Dunkin Donuts…4 more hours to go!

[Finn666]

…more pictures and everything after I arrive! the Ricoh does a pretty damn good job I have to say...absolutely overwhelmed from its features and the picture quality! thanks for pushing me over the edge to go out and buy it @ChuckDenim @derivative666

So sorry you had to experience Hardee's and Dunkin Donuts. Look for a Chick Fil A if you need fast food.

[Chris]

C'mon Shane, you know Chick-fil-a is closed today.

And if you're looking for donuts, you really should go to Krispy Kreme, Rafa.

Yep. My bad.

[Finn666]

I guess I already gained like 2kilos during my first week in the US @urbanwoodsman …feeling like shit, but I love it!
def. need to do a whole30 though (or longer!) after I get back to "normal life" again ^^

there's a chick-fil-a in VA though...like 5min. from my home...need to check that out when I'm back again in a week from now!

[urbanwoodsman]

You're gonna need to do a wholeyear after your NYC visit.

Just had this for dinner.

[Finn666]

a "whole365" sounds dope….noooot!

[louisbosco]
