A few photos of me and dad aboard the Queen Mary yesterday

It’s now Friday 4 January and we left Thornbury on Tuesday 1 January.

Times going quickly this week.

We set off early and hit the traffic going into the city. It moved very slowly for quite a few miles. We managed to find a car park near to the LA waxworks along the “walk of fame..” You pay 15 dollars all day and they park the car for you and return it to you!

Up on the pavement we saw lots of young people dressed up as super heroes and wanting to be photographed. Here is Spider-Man waving to me. He said ” I see you my lady” I thought Otis Louis and Xavi would like this.
We saw loads more characters and bumblebee. Grandad told him Louis has difficulty transforming him and he said, “you can learn from 7 year olds no problem…”. Grandad said “but hes 6” ….he said “you will learn soon”

So if I’m truthful I didn’t enjoy the bus tour through Beverley Hills and sunset boulevard and Hollywood areas. We were shown where the stars eat at restaurants and places they worked and filmed at. I thought it would be much more grand and we would see more historical areas and background stories to the stars, but it didn’t happen!

We spotted many stars names on the walk of fame. Grandads name was there Lily!

We went to the Hollywood Rock Cafe for lunch. I really liked it there and the food was delicious. The menu was calorie counted and I chose well to keep to my diet.

In the afternoon we drove up the hillside above,to view the Hollywood sign. There were hundreds of people up there and we realised we were at the famous planetarium and observatory

It was so impressive inside and explained all about things like planets orbits super planets, movement of the moon etc. But too many people were there though. I cant imagine what its like in the Summer!
The views over LA were amazing
I hope you like the photos.
Some bad weather coming tomorrow with rain, so we will go to museums if it is too bad, otherwise we are off to The Tar Pits and Santa Monica Beach.

I hope your work is going well Anona and that you are having a good time at the farm Lily.
I hope Matthew Blandine Louis and Alice that you had a lovely holiday. I think the photos look so beautiful
