Rhi and I flew in and made our way to our neat Hollywood hostel for a night before meeting Sammy, Rosie and Mitch at our apartment to share down the opposite side of town. We did the obligatory walk down Hollywood Blvd checking our all the stars, freaks and preparations for the Oscars.
After that we jumped in the big ford renta and headed to Santa Monica for the evening. A great food hall stuffing at the amazing shopping centre near the beach followed by a venture down the pier and back completed our night. Since I had done Disneyland during a previous trip I elected to try something different for the next day. A walk and lunch along Venice beach it was. Freaks, skaters, TV sets and sunshine a plenty! The next day we all went to 6 flags rollercoaster heaven. Adrenaline flowed freely as we tumbled on some of the biggest and best coasters in the world. That night we trained it into central LA CBD and to the Staples Centre to watch the Lakers win easy against the Trail Blazers resulting in 2 free tacos each for the capacity crowd. The next day we set off early for the long and windy drive up the picturesque highway 1 to San Fransisco.
