LA day six

Day 6

Well we were supposed to wake-up super early, go for breakfast then the pool then China Town and finish the day in Hollywood but we slept over and woke up at almost 10 this morning. Then Dee decides to over clean her ear and guess what the cotton got stuck in her ear. Wowzer! Peggy tried to remove it, she did her best but it got stuck in. So she called Betty the best nurse ever in Montreal!!! Since we won't be in Montreal within the next 24h it was best for her to go see a doctor.
We went to IHOP and we're at the clinic right now.
Dee as a doctor file in LA!
So this random guy, Mr. Taylor, sitting next to us goes: "I don't want to insult you but, I bought my bracelet in Ghana/Africa for a charity and I want to buy more, where in Africa are you guys from?!"  We started to laugh hard. "We're not from Africa! Our ancestor are but we're not!" and he goes " but you guys speak an other language? Are you from the Caribbean?!" it’s French and our parents are but we were born in Canada! He said, "Sorry I'm so ignorant!" Over all he was a very funny interesting guy! He made us laugh! He moved 6 years ago in LA. In general people move to LA and see if they can make it and if not they go back home. And he mentioned that they are not too big about celebrating the 4th of July. That's probably why we didn't see much yesterday.

So Dee's out and the doctor didn’t have the tool to remove the cotton. We went to an other clinic, $50 for consultation and $75 to remove the cotton! So Dee decided to keep it in! So first thing to do in her list tomorrow: remove that thing for FREE!

So we're at the pool taking some sun, it's our last 24h before we leave the city...

Overslept at the pool, the sun was hot… My nose is starting to crack… it’s not pretty… lol! Forget about China Town we’re going to Millions Milkshakes!!! Yieee! After an hour to decide where an what to do… We went across for diner, Carl’s Jr. then straight to get a milkshake.
It was good!

So this is it, the girls are sleeping and I think I’ll do the same.
In the morning we fly back to Montreal.

LA was fun.
I had a great time with 2 great friends!

Next destination… maybe San Francisco or Las Vegas, we’ll see.

Ohla! to “Jeanny” in Panama! Hope you’re having a great time!

Good bye LA

LA day five


Day 5

Why am I up, it's 5 in the morning.
Well, happy b-day too all the Americans! Happy Independence Day! 4th of July, what a nice day to be born!!!
Last night I heard the fireworks going on but I was too knock out to go check it out.
It's already day 5! Honestly, at first I though a week was too much in LA but we did so much so far, I was no regrets!

Today, we’re probably going to take it easy. Enjoy the celebration, the pool and go to the Cheesecake Factory if we can make it there!
Right now I'll close my eyes and try to sleep a bit more.

So, no more El Pollo Loco for me... I'm not in a great shape...

For lunch, we went to eat at IHOP! I had a juicy burger with fries and lemonade! Hummy!
We're taking this day easy!
Back in our room, Peggy's on the Internet and Dee is sleeping.

Thanks to everyone for all the text messages, voice mails and emails, much appreciated. Love you all!

So after Independence day, the movie with Will Smith, we're off too Cheesecake Factory at the Farmer's Market.
Food was good but the plates were toooo big.

We walked around took a few pictures and head back to the hotel.

So, it's pass midnight.
I have to say, Dee stop taking pictures of yourself every 2 min, it's a bit narcissistic. And Peggy, just buy new batteries for your camera. Lol! I'm teasing you but I'm happy we're spending the week together!

Ok time to dodo...

LA day four

Day 4

I was up super early this morning, well 6 am LA time but in reality 9am home time. I add some pics on my blog. Looking in the mirror I can see that I have a nice uniform skin, thank you sun!
So today is day two of our tour, so back to downtown and then Universal Studio and will finish the day with Madame Tussaud, all that only if it's in God's will.

So out we go to eat.
The girls are craving IHOP, so IHOP it is.
After walking around and asked a few people we finally reach the IHOP, only to see a line up...
At this point I'm HUNGRY, me want to eat NOW!
So we walked to the Denny's next door, guess what, an other line up. Well, I didn't waste time; the gas station is my friend. I got myself a cheese danish and a strawberry and kiwi juice!
We finally got our table 30 min later. I'm glad I eat something.

Day 4 is not a good day, there's always a bad day right, so it's all good! But let me tell you something, it's so easy to get around in LA, if you don't mind walking, buses and train, do it instant of the tour. It's so cheap to get around here. That bus tour is getting on my nerves with there schedules. They should be on time and they should give only the right schedule. If it's over do the get rid of it, recycle or something. Anyways, I'm having a 30 min tan because of that perfect schedule so it's a bittersweet situation!!

Well LA has the biggest Korean population after Korea and they are all in Korea city, no doubt, lol!

Did you know that Nath King Cole's family was the first black Americans in LA! Go Nath! And did you know that because of the Internet many artist not to say all have to cut in there money share but not Wil Smith! You go Will!

Like Peggy said:" When they take over, they take over!" China Town looks like China! There houses, their plaza, restaurants, the way they dress, everything! Wow!

It's only 3:40pm and I tired... I need to do a little siesta...

Oh boboye, lol! I did fall a sleep, I missed have haft of the tour. Well that gave me more energy!

So, on our way to Universal Studio!
In the bus with some AC. Everyone on the street is getting ready for the fireworks tonight! They have all they need, food, drinks... Mind you, it only 5:30 and the show is only tonight!

Universal was nice, next time, we'll the day or an evening. Our chauffeur was really nice!

Back to Hollywood to the Madame Tussaud. It's my second time, first one was in London. This one is 10X smaller but nice. Happy I didn't pay for it but glad I saw different actors and I was with the girls so this time is 10X better!

The street is jam pack of people! And it's the long weekend!!! Tomorrow they will really celebrate can't wait to see that.

So after walking around and taking more pictures we're off to El Pollo Loco! Just for Peggy! She had a bad experience on our first day with her grilled chicken at the Thai restaurant. So now, we're going for the really thing, well you know...

Well El Pollo Loco was ok... We have better in Montreal!

So that's it
We're out time to sleep!

LA day tree

Day 3

Denny's is the place to go!
The waitress recognized us and was glad to see us again!

So in the subway or train, that's how they call it, this random guy start talking to Dee. Why, because we were speaking in French. Do you have a degree?, he goes. And after 2 stops he said: “Have a great days and stay away from the The LA sisters!" lol! I guess LA loves Dee!

The plan today is to go to the beach!
We purchase a 2-day tour that goes from Korea town to downtown LA to Hollywood and straight to Santa Monica beach.

As soon as we enter into Beverly Hill you see people jogging or walking there dogs. Everyone as a dog! Lol!
The gay village seems to be on Santa Monica bl.

Rodeo dr is the shopping mall of the celebrities!!
Beverly hill dr is the best place to eat and they have a cheesecake factory!
Guess where I'm going for my b-day?!

"Respect is earn just like a victory!" written on a billboard.

Santa Monica city what's is up with the weather?!
We came for the beach please represent!!
Drivers honk all the time... Patience...

Finally at the Santa Monica Beach! Yes, water from the Pacific Ocean! It was very cold! But once you're in there you just can't get out! Fun time catching those waves!

It's really the city of the Want to be a Star, they're all trying to shine and have there moment of fame!
You see people singing, doing performance, gymnastic tricks.
Overall it’s a really nice beach. There’s lot of thing to do and see.
They have the Santa Monica Pier, Third Street Promenade, an amusing park and an aquarium.

The city is clean and windy close to the water.

Wow, all I heard all day in that bus tour in a British accent is: " hop on hop off!"
The ride back was long… We saw a lot of thing but I that point I was cold and hungry.

Back in Hollywood, we went straight to Mc Donald for a quick bit.
Good thing the subway stops right in front of our hotel.

So that is it for tonight
An other great day in LA!

Good night

LA day two

 Happy Canada Day!

So...

Day 2, I think we were tired last night, lol!
We woke up late, watched "the hair show" with Chris Rock then went for breakfast/brunch at Denny's.

Thank you Lord for Denny's! The food was good and we were good till 5pm!
Is it me are everyone's a singer in that town?!

Then we went to the Korea Plaza. Let me tell you something, they took over the city!

They're all over the map. I personally needed to get out of there.
This girl, oh boboye, I said excuse-me 3 times, she totally ignore me...

What ever, she was probably deaf.
I guess we are different...

So we took the bus and went on Hollywood bl to walk the walk of fame.
We took a few pictures, went for a happy hour: mango margarita and beef tostada...
In that side of the city, there's some brothers and they are polite!
We got a few:" Hi ladies!" that's right! Lol!
Then up to a tour to see the celebrities houses in Hollywood, Beverly Hill and Bel Air.
Just like Fresh Prince said: "Celebrities Houses at Night!" lol!
Except that it was daytime! We didn't see anyone famous... booooo... lol!

Now to be honest I don't remember all the houses that we saw... MJ, Christina Aguilera, Madonna, Colombo, the guy from the office, The Play Boy mansion, Tom Cruise, The Hills (the show) and so many more.
Those houses, mansions and condo are worth $$$$$$$$$$,$$ millions of dollars $$$$$.
Wow! So were did we go wrong?!
No I don't want and need a big house but I wouldn't mind the money!

Over all we had a great time for a second day.
We met a few nice people with whom we laugh and other we had a smile connection! Lol!

So we’re back at the hotel, it’s almost 11pm LA time. We are tired!
So lets call it a day!
Peace, we're out!

LA day one :: after lunch

So,

I was super hungry and after the girls had there little sista, I had to go eat!
What's easy and fast Mc Donald.
First publicity we see: 50 McNuggets for 9.99 that's a lot! Wow. Anyways..
We were greeted with a "Welcome to Mc Donald!" excuse me wowzer!
That's a first! I had the southern style chicken with fries and a strawberry lemonade.
It was good! Forget about my sweet and sour sauce it's 27 cent extra! Lmao!
The place looks nice with a twist of chine town. The music is a bit... Sad...
We went for a walk in on our street and called it a day!

Peace out!
