Just got back from this year’s PAX East. It was held in Boston, just like last year but at a different venue. Fun times, as usual.

You can see pictures here.

I’ve spent Christmas and New Year’s around Los Angeles, with Cindy’s family. It was my first time in that area (my only other West Coast experience was San Francisco in 2008) so we split our time between visiting relatives and exploring around. We went to Universal Studios and took the tour, Malibu and Santa Monica beaches, Getty Museum and Hollywood Boulevard (where the stars are), Rodeo Drive and Griffith Observatory with its beautiful views of the city, Queen Mary (an old cruiseliner turned into a museum) and – my favorite – Legoland. We walked around LA a bit too.

We had a great time and nice weather – at a time when New York City was buried under snow. And, on a personal achievement note, I drove on this (Wikipedia)

Enjoy the pictures!

This weekend was the New York ComicCon, the yearly gathering of nerdyness on the East Coast. I was there – with Cindy and a few other friends – for most of the Saturday. You can see my pictures on SmugMug. There are also a few more from Cary, on Flickr.

After the expo we went to see the second part of the Lord of the Rings concert (the first movie was last year) which was as awesome as expected. Looking forward for the third part.
