On Wednesday Steven, a good
friend from Arizona, came and met me in Hollywood and we went and had lunch and
hung out. Was awesome to catch up with him and I left a bag of
winter clothes with him to make my bag a bit lighter for the rest of my trip. It is so much easier to pack my bag now! It is great to be able to
catch up with all these friends who I haven’t seen for over a year and feel like I saw them just yesterday :)
When I got back to the hostel
Justin and I drove up to the Hollywood sign, drove down Sunset Strip where
there are a lot of famous bars (including the Viper Room which Johnny Depp
owns), and went down to Santa Monica beach. We had dinner in Santa Monica and then
headed back to the hostel. They were having a karaoke night at the hostel and
everyone was hanging out drinking and watching the karaoke. Some people went
out to the bars after karaoke but I just hung out with some people at the hostel.
On Thursday Justin and I weren't sure what we wanted to do but decided to see how much the tours would cost to see the famous houses around Hollywood and Beverly Hills. We
wandered down Hollywood Boulevard talking to all the different people selling
the tours and managed to bargain it down to $15 each from the original $40. On
the tour they pointed out famous peoples houses, famous bars, went down Rodeo
Drive (the very expensive shopping area) and went to an awesome viewing spot of
LA where you could also see the Hollywood sign. Justin then had to go to the
airport and I just hung out at the hostel until Zach, a friend from Arizona,
came to pick me up to take me to Newport Beach.
