Vacation Day 2 - Hollywood & Highland


Day 2 was Hollywood & Highland! I had worried how L would adjust to the time difference of 2 hours, but she proved again that she's a natural traveler and woke up at 6:45AM -- actually sleeping in 45 minutes! L played for awhile and then took her morning nap, so I took advantage of the sleeping time and walked across the street to Ralph's for some groceries and then checked out things to do in Hollywood.

A 12noon L got up from her nap so we headed to Target in West Hollywood to get a stroller and some baby supplies. In the 10months L has been around, she's been to Target and other stores lots --- yet never have I had to change her diaper in a store. As soon as I walked into Target, J smelled poop...DANG!

After that we headed to Hollywood & Highland. We had lunch at Mel's Drive-In and Celebrity Bar (where Jay Leno is known to hang out at night with his cars). Had a great burger and fries...L clapped for our waiter every time he walked by and with her coy smile made friends with another table. Maybe I should look for an agent, ha! Then we walked around looking at the stars, saw some street caricatures, went to Grumman's Theater, Kodak theater, played in the fountain, went to the disney soda fountain for a scoop of ice cream. I let L try ice cream, cookies & cream, this would be her first time with ice cream -- I didn't want her to have sweets so young, but she's on vacation too!

It was really hot out, after a few hours, L was getting hot and sweaty so we headed home for the day. Grilled burgers with Auntie O and B. We joked they were slow-smoked b/c the grill took about 45 minutes to cook them. After that L took a bath and went to bed - out light a light! We had some mudslides and watched a movie - He's Just Not That Into You. Good movie! They were filming out on the side walk in front of Auntie O's place...didn't see anything.
