Lights, camera, action!!

Yes, made it to the states ok, but have now found out that I really don't like taking off!!
Anyways, the weather has been really nice, about 25 degrees most of the time. checked into the hostel on monday, and its really cool! you get to cook your own pancakes every morning, as many as you want!
Sunday, we jumped on a tourbus and went round to see where all the stars live, really nice places out here!! all up in the hills out of the way. we've walked up and down the walk of fame, its very long and actually involves 2 streets, and theres over 2500 names on it! also went to the riploeys believe it or not museum, some very strange stuff there, but we are in hollywood so thats no surprise!
went to universal studios on monday. the tour of the place is amazing, they drive you through various film sets, on of the best being the plane crash from war of the worlds. the rides are a lot of fun too, but be prepared to get wet. the jurrasic park ride has a 84 ft water drop on it! going back there again next week too.
tuesday, we walked up to the hollywood sign. yes it is a long way up, but worth it for the views of the city.
and yesterday was spent on the beach. Santa Monica beach. had a paddle in the pacific too, nice a cool and relaxing day yesterday. walked along venice beach too.
and today, we check out of the hostel and travel down to long beach, where we are staying on the queen mary for the night, then getting on the cruise ship tomorrow.
you know what, i'm not sure how much more of this i can take....

  1. I hope that the text I received was from directly under the HOLLYWOOD sign! And I'm sure that you can take a lot more!
