On the move again
Los Angeles
,
United States
Venice Beach has been good but a little bit weird. Our hostel is literally round the corner from the beach so all the weirdos that hang around there are shouting outside our window everynight. It's not that bad really but I wouldn't like to live here.
We went on a driving tour of L.A and all around
Beverley
Hills and Bel Air. We saw the house from the Fresh Prince! Also saw Michael Jackson's house but it wasn't all that interesting. We paid $22 for some ridiculous map that we couldn't follow and ended up giving up trying after like 5 minutes. These american roads fry my brain.
Rodeo Drive was my dream life. Louis Vuitton, Bottega, Hermes, etc etc. We only went in a few shops and then got sad that we couldn't afford anything so we went back to the car. Also, the only celebrity was saw was
English
! Lady Victoria Hervey or whatever her name... not interesting at all. Although I didn't have my glasses on so Justin Timberlake could have walked by and I wouldn't have noticed.
We drove up to an amazing view of the
Hollywood
sign. It looks so much smaller than I expected.
Last night we went to Santa Monica Pier but it was closed for a private event, so we just took some photos and came home!
No funny drunken stories really.. apart from we met these 2 americans in a bar and one of them was so stoned he couldn't open his eyes. He said we were the most awesome girls he had ever met but I'm not sure if that was the drugs/beer talking.
Also, I'm peeling and my chest has blistered in the most painful way ever. We haven't actually done any sunbathing yet though so I'll probably look like a leper by the time we get to Florida.
Today we're leaving for
San Diego
, via [[United-States/
Laguna
-Beach]]. It should only take about 2 and a half hours along the coast so should be really pretty.
Sea World and Shamou tomorrow! I'm so excited to see the killer whales.
Hope everyone is okay.
Love Emma
