I live Seattle, WA.

You can have the guest room at my place for a while if you are not afraid of a house with 2 kids (9,3) and 2 crazy cats.

I'll drive you around town to a few clubs including night ones.

I gladly accept a stay at your place with my whole family minus the cats. Big%20smile

Fatt your offer is so far the best - well only offer, sounds really good :) of course I have a guest room here too.

As long as your cats don't do what's happening in your avatar! that would freak me out.

I will look at Seatlle once I get home from work, today, ah and

This weekend we get to see Wiliam Henzell play, who knows I might actually have to play in my group!

just wish I wasn't so smashed by this flu I got.

oh, wow!!  sorry about that--i didn't realize it would finish on the 3rd, cuz it usually goes on throughout that weekend.

anyhow, in case you don't know, the 4th of July is our INDEPENDENCE DAY (from Britain), so all american cities will have some type of celebration which usually includes fireworks that night.

so, if i were you, i would try be in a major city that day, cuz the bigger cities tend to have better fireworks displays that night and, also, more elaborate celebrations.

anyhow, good luck on the trip!!

I just found out that ICC (Indian Community Center) is having 2 advanced camps during that time with Sean Oneill as the head coach.
 
Sean O'Neill as a Head coach

July 5 - July 9
July 12 - July 16
 
 
ICC is in Milpitas, Ca which is just SE of San Francisco.  ICC is one of the best (if not the best) training oriented clubs in the country.  You can get info on them at http://indiacc.org/tabletennis.  Scroll down to the bottom of the page for the links to TT related items.
 
 
Its wikipedia so I don't guarantee total accuracy, but I think it gives a good idea of his credentials. 
 
 
Drive between LA and San Franciso on Highway 1 (right along coast) has some of the best scenery in the US.
 
I am not familiar with your level of play and how it would fit into the US rating system.  However, if you e-mail Rajul Sheth at ICC I am sure he could tell you exactly how you would fit into one of his camps.
 
Good Luck.  Hope you get to make the trip.
 
Mark

I would suggest Houston but around the time you are coming it will be a mosquito infested swamp.

thanks guys, I just got to see my rankings after the Queensland Championships and even though I won 80% or more of my matches the last match of the day cost me a lot more points.

I am now in the 1600s. Anyway I have to stop thinking about rankings and ratings otherwise I think I will quit the sport.

On the topic of the holiday, there is a chance that I will go to Japan to go and protest in front of Butterfly Japan. I may use the money to go protest or just buy a load of tenergy since the price is going up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. I want to know if there are any TT events on.
3. I want to know who would give me a place to sleep, like couch (sofa) matress on the floor, has a car to show me a few sites around your town.

4. I would like to create a kind of plan of a - b - c etc until I have to return to the airport. I am hoping to see some sites, play some TT, drink some happy local stuff and enjoy for a couple of weeks and meet the people I have grown to love via this forum.

If you feel you would like to be apart of this sponsor a crazy Aussie table tennis player tour, PM me and I will add your town as a point of possible destination.

YOU AND YOUR FRIEND OR FAMILY ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO STAY AT MY HOUSE IN AUSTRALIA if you choose to visit.

- I will not bother visiting your country if nobody replies. I am at least looking for a night or 2 on your floor.

If I find 3 people in LA then I will stay there but if people all over the south west mention interest then I will look into further travel.

If nobody offers then I think I might just fly into Tokyo and eat sashimi and say hello to old friends.



Hi:

Sorry I missed this thread until now...

If you come to L.A., you could stay in a budget motel next to our Los Angeles Table Tennis Association, and play table tennis 24/7 if you wish!  We are the 2nd largest full-time table tennis club in the United States, and there are always plenty of 2150-2350 level players to test your skills.  There are also quite a few national and international-level coaches if you are interested in getting some serious training.  Every Saturday I organize an Open round robin event at 2pm with perhaps the strongest field in the area. 

I can offer you rides from and to the airport, as well as to our city's most popular sightseeing spots, but I won't be able to be your tour guide because of my busy schedule... I could also set you up with relatively inexpensive short tours to famous areas nearby such as Las Vegas/Grand Canyon, San Diego/Sea World, Sequioa/Yosemite/S.F. etc.

Best Regards,
William

But for the best TT _and_ beach... probably LA.

there is an option in your profile that I can set off for you so you will not receive a notice when somebody posts to a thread you have posted as well.
Let me know,
fatt

he's referring to not having his email on the internet so that robots cannot crawl the internet, detect email address, and add him to spam lists

No, I didn't mean that. Those emails are fine. I meant the fact that my email address is in plain text when you do "View Source" on the webpage. Spammers crawl the Web looking for email addresses.
