Hollywood Tour!

Hollywood Tour! (8/9/11 Thursday)

Another Hollywood boulevard, but this time with Sav, my Canadian friend. I haven’t seen her for 3 years or so. It was so good to see her again. it is nice to have friend from all over the world. I set the time and place to meet. It was in Chinese theater. We took 2 hours Hollywood tour for $44, good deal. we sat in this open mini Van, there were only 8 of us and each one had headphone on so we could hear the tour guide. I felt like in the oven,  it was hot day. First the tour took us up the hill so we could see the Hollywood’s sign, ahh I could see it also from the Hostel so I didn’t take many pictures like everyone did. Then we went to Hollywood movie starts’ houses. Million Dollars house up the hill belong to famous movie starts/ singer such as Frank Sinatra, Julia Robert, Madonna, etc… and richy people in LA (Matthew Sica said 90% of them are rich but invisible a.k.a not famous or maybe they don’t want to :)

From The beginning of the ride, the tour guide insisted us to see Lindsey Lohan’s house. He said “we will see her house, big white house with many body guards” we were so excited. But when we got there, it was Hollywood Jail where she got arrested many times.. . ah then we got it! we didn’t see any famous people in Rodeo street or Beverly hills. it was pretty good and worthy. The ticket was also included the wax museum “madam tussauds”,the movie starts’ wax look so real but some don’t. i took a bunch of pictures as usual. At 5pm we parted, I had a good time with Sav. I was so happy she made it to LA to see me.

Thai food was our dinner, Matthew Sica took us to Thai community which is 2 blocks away from Banana Bungalow. We had tom yang soup, basil chicken, morning glory etc… tons of food but nothing can compete “Bangkok kitchen” in Cape Cod. Our last night in Hostel shared with 2 young girls from Switzerland, they were very friendly.
