Hey everyone,
Today was just destined to be a great day because we were staying less than a mile away from Disneyland and in a nice Holiday Inn. After eating breakfast we all decided to go to Venice Beach and Hollywood Boulevard so that we could see the stars.
I was surprised to see how many people were trying to make money on the beach. Walking down the strip on Venice Beach there were shops on one side and then there were people that were set up to sale all kinds of items on the beach side. Some people sold paintings, clothing, mini-skulls, and jewelry. We walked around a little bit and then of course….we had to go to the beach. As we approached the ocean clay jumped in without hesitating. The Pacific Ocean unlike the Atlantic Ocean is cold. I was excited for Al because she hadn’t ever been to the beach before. I gave Al and Cait a hard time because the girls didn’t bring their swim suits, so Clay and I went into the ocean by ourselves. I had to convince Al to at least come by the ocean to put her feet in. Clay and I were going to throw Cait in, but Dr. D. saw what we were planning and instantly stopped us.
After visiting Venice Beach we went to Hollywood to see all of the famous stars. There were many stars that had their hands and feet cemented into the ground, but the major stars that stood out to me were Marilyn Monroe, Will Smith, Eddie Murphy, Matt Damon, and Johnny Depp. A woman dressed in a Cat Woman costume asked if I wanted a picture and of course I said, “Yes Ma’am.” I didn’t realize that she was looking to get money from me, but by that time I already had a picture taken. As I was walking down the sidewalk looking at all the stars on the ground I ran into a man dressed in a Spock costume from Star Wars. He even looked like Spock, so of course I had to give him a “Live long and prosper” high five. After walking away I decided that I couldn’t leave without taking a video of Spock because I didn’t think anyone would believe me.
I love L.A.
