Sorry I've been so slack at updating this blog for you all. I'm trying really I am. Can I use sickness as an excuse? No one freak out, I don't mean morning sickness I just have a bit of flu from all the temp changes and aircon.
Anyway on day two after Randys Donuts we went to an outside mall called The Grove. There's heaps of shops and farmers markets there. Supposedly celebrities go to that mall so I was kinda hoping to see one. Haha. Anyway we looked around some shops for a while and bought some things from apple that people had requested then wandered down to the markets. There's lots of knick knacky stuff there so we didn't buy much Briar got a giant size mug and i got a toy combi van for Ngi cos it reminded me of theirs and their bach.
We had made a list of a few sights we wanted to see that day so we had to keep moving but we were hungry so our next stop was to eat at a place called Barney's Beanery
Barney's is like a pub with a few restaurants here and there but we went to the original one where Jim Morrison (The Doors), Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix used to go. They have memorabilia and you can see their names carved in the tables. We ordered one of each appetizer as they were cheap 'cos it was happy hour. We shared mozzarella sticks, buffalo wings, chicken bits and Irish nachos (with potatos not chips).
We weaved up thru some nice streets to get as close as possible to the Hollywood sign. Finally we got there when it was almost dark. We took some pics and headed to a place called Amoeba Music. Its like Real Groovy Records at home. But this store has such a reputation that even Paul McCartney played there live in store. After that we decided to go home cos Miles had to work. He does shifts from 11-3am. We got home and talked some more to George as Marci was already in bed. Another night that we got to sleep about 2am! It's quite hot at night so we sleep with the ceiling fan on and the windows open, but we get to sleep pretty quick cos we are soo tired.
