So my roomie Erin’s little sister and her friend were in town last weekend, so we all went up to LA to explore! They are from the East Coast so Hollywood was a perfect destination to sight see while they were here. We spent the entire day shopping on Robertson and doing all the tourist-y things like visiting all the stars and Chinese Theater! Kim Kardashian was actually shopping on Robertson too the same day! Great minds think alike

I ate too much at lunch so it was annoying to walk around all day but I’m glad we did. I actually had never been to the Chinese Theater before. For those of you who had no idea what the Chinese Theater is, it’s the most famous theater in Hollywood. The grand opening of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on May 18, 1927, was the most spectacular theatre opening in motion picture history. Thousands of people lined Hollywood Boulevard and a riot broke out as fans tried to catch a glimpse of the movie stars and other celebrities as they arrived for the opening.

It was cool to see all of the famous actors and actresses hand and foot prints. Marilyn Monroe’s foot prints were seriously tiny, like two of mine together It is a fun tourist thing to do when in Hollywood, check out their site for more info.

After walking around we went to the Roosevelt hotel and laid out for a bit. I love The Roosevelt Hotel, however the hotel was a mess the day we went. Dirty towels and trash covering the entire pool area. I don’t know what was going on there that day. Of course the pool was full of weirdos in cat ears and thongs, people in LA are so weird I couldn’t wait to run home. Everyone seems like they’re on drugs or pills. Slow and out of it? I dunno what it is, people just seem a bit off.

Anyway, it was a fun day trip. After exploring LA we went to visit friends in OC. One is pregnant so I had to stop by and harass her about being way too grown up. She stuffed us full of cookies & cocktails and we went on our merry way. She won’t tell me the baby’s name, probably because I’ll find a way to make fun of whatever it is. Anyway, I had so much fun running around LA and catching up with pals! Fun day trip if you’re bored with SD!
