So the whistling competition is in Louisburg, a 10 hour drive from NY. I set off with my artist girlfriend Lydia Mullin (her art is excellent – see it here), Laura, and Lydia’s friend Anna, who is making a documentary on our trip called “London to Louisburg” (so stay tuned it will be awesome!). We all got along really well and laughed more than I have for a while.
On the first night we had an evening at a cool pub in Philly and stayed at the Latham hotel – in its heyday Led Zeppelin stayed there. After lunch the next day in DC we arrived in Louisburg and stayed in a great place for the next 4 days, 30 minutes from where the whistling competition was (which was in Louisburg College).
Apart from Laura freaking out everytime some long flying bug infiltrated the mosquito net, it was pretty good. We smoke and drank way too much.
