I was so excited for this day....
I have always wanted to see "Hollywood."
I love movie stars...probably too much!
Day 2: Hollywood
We had a nice drive into downtown LA/Hollywood. We arranged for our "Hollywood Home Tour".. while we waited for our departure we had lunch at California Pizza Kitchen. It was really delicious. For our tour, we rode in a van with an open top. It was really fun. We drove around for two hours. We went down sunset strip, Rodeo drive, Beverly Hills, Hollywood sign lookout, and through most of the stars neighborhoods. I was excited to see Jennifer Aniston's new home...even though we could only see the roof. We saw the house that Brad and Jennifer lived in before their divorce, Michael Jackson's house he died in, Elvis, Dr Phil (Beautiful house with greenery all over it), Beckham's, Tom Cruise, Tori Spelling's HUGE house, Cortney Cox (Her nanny drives a nice Lexus), Johnny Deps new house (He has a party that night so his house was hopping with people prepping for the party), Orlando Blooms (he had cops, helicopters at his house earlier that day), Jay Leno, National Security Offices in Beverly Hills, (they are too good for a normal office..they have to have a mansion), I know I am missing memorable ones..we saw over 70 houses. It was an awesome tour! Did you know that most of the stars drive Black or white Range Rovers around town. We stopped at the "Hollywood" lookout and took pictures. Did you know it originally said "Hollywoodland?"
After our tour, we walked around the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Did you know the stars have to pay $25,000 to get a star? Crazy...no wonder we couldn't find Jennifer Aniston's. We then walked around the famous hand & foot prints and signatures of stars infront of the Chinese theatre. In order to get a spot you have to have 5 blockbusters and been in the business 10 yrs. We walked around for awhile and then we asked if Brad Pitt had one and they told us his was by George Clooney and we realized we missed his because he just signed it with a "BP." No one was taking pictures by his because they didn't know it was his...but we DID!
When we bought our tour they gave us free tickets to see "Madame Tussauds" wax museum. We were so excited. It saved us $25. Gotta love that. It was fun walking around and taking photos with the celebrities. They were so life-like. We had fun! Right outside of the museum they had a special red carpet event going on...so we stood outside and watched the action. They had Disney channel stars. It was fun to see a red carpet event.
Finally we ended the fun-filled day with dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. It was so yummy! The cheesecake was amazing too. Kara and I fell asleep in the car riding home and we slept sooooo well that night. We were exhausted!
Hollywood was awesome!
Brad Pitt's Block!
We aren't single but we had fun singing!
Gotta kiss Brad!
