City of Angels

So we packed our bags, jumped into a Town Car and headed to catch our flight to LAX. On arrival in the city of angels (and stars), we checked into our hotels and then walked around the local area around the hotel, Hollywood. This included the Kodak Theatre, Chinese Theatre, Walk of Stars etc. Also headed up to Universal City to have dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe there.

We spent the first full day we had in LA visiting the happiest place on earth. We saw all the lands (toonland, adventureland, critter country, tomorrowland, fantasyland, new orleans square, frontierland and mainstreet USA). We went on most of the rides and it was good as there wasnt much people around, which meant next to no queues. One negative though, all the staffmembers are not exactly happy and chipper as you would expect....but the atmosphere more than made up for it.

On the second day full day, we headed off to the Hollywood Hills/Beverly Hills to try and see some celebrities. Did a little bit of shopping on Rodeo Drive, and also went over to Santa Monica and Venice Beach as well as a little bit of sightseeing downtown.

Tonight, we had dinner at a restaurant called Ketchup, it is financed by the one and only Ashton Kutcher. We also lined up go into a club called Crimson, but Raf wasn't well at all so us boys ended up coming back while the girls continued their night out. We will be driving down to San Diego tomorrow, so fingerest crossed we have no incidents going down!

Tipping over here has been the biggest pain in the arse! I'm sure that all the tour guides and waiters are hating us right now as we give the worst tips ever. But if they don't reach our standards, they arent deserving of a tip now are they...! lol

Will post again down in San Diego.

Lots of Love,
Alex
