Okay, so assuming I'm mobile on Sunday (will be on Monday, but that depends on Sunday) what tiki places should I visit in the LA area? Any thoughts or suggestions?

Another successful crawl !! Thanks everyone for coming out.

Also I'm glad we made it to Hank's Bar otherwise there would have been no "lowbrow" in the crawl. :)

I hope everyone made it safely home.

John-O is the Pied Piper of Tiki! What a great thing to see all of you happy crawlers pour into Trader Vic's last night. Nick, Jonpaul and I only wish we had been done with the magazine meeting, so we could have joined you in a drink. (We were still SO far behind with our business when you arrived!) So, we hope you understood that we had to move to a quieter part of the restaurant so we could finish up.
John-0, keep me on the list because I really want to go on one of your crawls! Everyone looked like they were having a fantastic time!

Aloha from Kari!

Another awesome John-O productions crawl. The drinks were great at Cana and it was a scene taking over the back room at Trader Vic's.

Tonga Tom, great group shot. One of those classic moments on the crawl - stopping the pedestrian traffic at LA Live to wait for the camera timer to go off!

Look forward to the next one.

I'm glad everyone had a great Tiki time.

Also I forgot to grab a copy of the custom drink menu that Cana put together for us. Can someone post an image of that?

Also thank you to Cana for giving all of the attendees a free 1-year membership. :)

Thanks JOHN-O!
That crawl was a lot of fun.
For some reason, the beautiful bar at Cana inspired me to have 4 of their zombies... and yet I made it through the rest of the night. So, well done, sir -- a good time indeed.

As A-Frame's wing man for the night, I can attest to that. After making it through three stops on the crawl, A-Frame decides that stop #4 should be at the Tiki Ti to finish off his personal stash of Dagger Rum!

Thank you John-O for making this happen - we had a blast. I'm sorry I missed the last stop at Hank's - I really wanted to go, but was too pooped out.
When is the next one?

Here's some of the late night debauchery from the last two drinking spots...

"Sabu The Coconut Boy!"

"Yes?"

These two were playing some sort of German smoking game, and Sherriyaki & The Capt. were cheering them on.

Microscopic Martini Madness!

Fourth and final destination...

"The name is O..."

"...John O"

"Are we there yet?"

"Are we there yet?"

Pleasant dreams...
