Meeting famous people…

This morning was by far my best and worst morning, today was Hollywood day, but it also meant it was my last day of my CA vacation. We started the Hollywood experience by walking the “Walk of Fame” and of course taking cheesy pictures of the stars we like, next we saw part of the wax museum, outside were Snopp Dogg and Samuel L Jackson.

I also posed for pictures with Batman and Jack Sparrow. Later I found Marilyn Monroe’s handprints (which are virtually the same size as mine) and feet prints (which are ridiculously small!) and her wax figure so we had fun taking pictures with her.

Then we went a ‘tour of the stars homes’ which was pretty fun, if you were riding in a topless van in South Africa you know you’re on a safari and are looking for animals, however in Hollywood you are looking at where famous people live, puts things in perspective doesn’t it? We saw Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills and later went to Santa Monica Boulevard, where we were tipped off to a Lady Gaga signing, Donna being the fun lady she is said “do you want to go?” bearing in mind we weren’t even sure exactly where we were going…but we had a GPS.

I promise that is Lady Gaga!

We decided to just go for it, after maybe 30 mins or more of getting lost, driving in circles and lots of laughter we found the Best Buy where she was signing cd’s. The queue was totally crazy and it was pretty hard to get close to her, but we did catch a glimpse or two of her, so that was really fun! When we finally said goodbye to Hollywood and all its dreams we headed back to say goodbye to the boys and thank them for everything. The rest of the night was spent packing my bags; it’s amazing how nothing ever fits on the way home!
