hope you are all enjoying the summer
arrived in LA wednesday feeling very very weird as i had just undergone a form of time travel - and they said it was impossible! (if you don't understand...Left fiji 10pm wed 27th arrived in LA (after a 10 hour flight) at 1.20pm wed 27th! - the trick; to cross the international date line :) )
I was really good actually, as it meantthat I got to re-live wednesday without the hangover I had the 1st time!!!
the hostel is really good for organising activities - have done a walking tour to the Runyon canyon park where the celbs walk their dogs and also a trip around bel air and beverly hills (OMG the houses are incredible around there!) we saw the playboy mansion and talked to "the rock" (all 3 of Hugh Heffners houses actually!) the Brad Pitt/Jenifer Aniston house, danny devitos house, and we saw courtney cox (monica from friends) in her car. + we then went shopping on Rodeo Drive (well window shopping anyway - still living on a backpackers budget i couldn't quite afford to buy anything - but it didnt stop me looking!!
up to the hollywood sign tomorrow before i fly to NY for my last few days - see if i can force myself to do any more shopping - my bag is already HUGE (and no doubt overweight - all Issy's fault by the way!- i wouldnt have bought so much if she hadn't sent me shopping in the 1st place!)
SEE YOU IN 3 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(who wants to come get me and force me on the plane?!?! cos otherwise I may not get on - just accidently get on one to sydney instead!! haha)
