Short Segway Videos

I bought a new digital camera 2 weeks ago. Here are my first short videos made on my new camera. I was trying to figure out video mode while trying to balance on a Segway. It was a challenge. I made the mistake of turning the camera sideways while shooting like I do when I take photos..oops.

San Diego by Segway

My bestest friend Janice got me a Segway tour of San Diego for Xmas. So Awesome! There were 3 other people on the tour. They were really nice. We took a hands-on 30 minute lesson on how to ride it and then started our tour. It was super easy to get the hang of and so much fun.

The tour was of a peninsula across from downtown San Diego called Coronado. It was a really cool place where apparently rich people live. All the houses are different, due to a building restriction code and they haven't been aloud to build anything over 4 stories tall in over 40 years. There are only about 4 buildings that are tall and even they are only 20 stories or less.

Here is round one of my pics. These are the ones I took while on the Segway. I will post a video I took while on it and some more pics of downtown later this week.

After my last post, you'd think I'd have the sense not to post a picture of myself on the internet. But apparently, I have no sense or shame. So here's me on my super fun segway, with a helmet nonetheless.


One thing about a tour on a segway is that it is really difficult to take picture while on it and stay balanced.


Our guide was a retired Navy guy who totally reminded me of Wilson the neighbor from Home Improvement. He was great...and he didn't have to wear a helmet.


Some of the areas we rode through we kinda crowded and people we passed stared and commented.
