Nothing really interesting happened these last days... My cousin paid me a visit from Zürich, and it was nice, but we don't know each other very well, and don't have much to talk about. In a way he annoys me a bit, he has ideas on everything, he has an answer to all the problems of the world, and is far to much enthusiastic for me. His project for the future is to radically change the urbanism in L.A. to make it a model for the world. I guess it is a lot to do there to make it like Utopia. I brought him with me for a flight around the region, the weather was awesome and he enjoyed it a lot I think, and so did I of course. Although it has begun to be warmer, there is still a lot of snow, and it makes the landscape look quite peaceful. The plane I fly crashed on landing without anyone injured the day after, and my phone kept ringing while I was at the lesson, because my father and some friends thought it was me. Fortunately not, but I have to find another plane to fly... :/
We also went to see a photographic exhibition named "Paradise, or almost" with pictures about Los Angeles. He lived quite a long time in California, and I thought it could be interesting for him, as well as for me. Some photos where really great, I liked this one very much, amongst others:

My sister is turning 20 this weekend. My father called, and he makes a drama about this because my sister didn't want to go to the restaurant with all the family, so we are going to hers on saturday (with the family of my mother) and eat at my fathers on sunday at noon (considering that my sister is going out with her friends, and her alcoolic boyfriend, I very much doubt about this schedule to be followed...). He says that no one of the family of my mother side invited her, and that it's not fair, because I was invited when I turned 20 and not her and bla bla bla... I explained him that SHE didn't want to be invited, but he doesn't understand, and convinced my sister that she is the victim of a careless mother and family... he always tries to make my sister think like that so that she gets mad about my mother, just to annoy my mother. He does it on purpose, and it really makes me angry, because my sister just take everything he says as the truth even if it's not, and it fucks all the good moments because it turns into drama. He has this pathologic need to take his revenge on my mother, and he uses us as weapons, and I really hate that. I understood it a few years ago, when I moved, and realized all the things he put in our heads to make us be against our mother. I hope that everything will be fine, I already put some grease in the wheels, tried to defuse the upcoming crisis with my best diplomatic skills...
I'm going to offer my sister a travel. I'm bringing her for a few days on the Azur coast. It's a total surprise, and she won't know it untill we get there. I'm looking forward, I think she will really like it. I love the mediterranean coast so much! She loves Hotel California from the Eagles, and in this village there is a hotel called like that, and we will live there for a few days. It's a bit stupid, but it's just for fun, and in order to have a few nice day of vacation by the sea :)
Sarah told me about a friend of her who is really nice, and gay, and work in a bookshop. She told me to go and look if he is ok. I went several times last week, but he's never there... I'm becoming the best customer of the month, but that's not my aim! :)

For some reason I thought your sister was much older. o.O
Taking her to the Azur Coast is really nice (I don't think I'd have enough money or time to take one of my brothers to such a place).
I hope everything goes okay! I hope familial drama is averted.
The nice thing is that it is not so far, and thus not that expensive. It's like going from one one part of California to the other :)
It's regrettable that your father is so vindictive. I hope your sister will learn to see through him as well as you do.
Sounds like a nice trip to the coast. Will you be flying her? or driving? I suppose if you took a plane or a train, it would let the cat out of the bag when she saw the destination.
We'll take the train. I don't have a driver licence :/ But we have to change 3 times, so it will make the guess difficult :)
