LA

In LA! Probably won't actually leave Hollywood for the two days I'm staying here.

Took 2 1/2 hours to get out the friggin LAX airport! At the very first traffic lights saw a McDonalds and a Hummer.

Went out last night to Sunset Blvd, listened to live rock/country (well, it was just rock but the accent made it sound countryish). It was awesome. Made me feel like I really was in the US of A!

Other observations:
Hollywood - touristy but fun
Madame Tussauds - creepy
Star spotting - Justin Timberlake

View out the hostel window as I'm posting this:











The Kodak theatre is where the Academy Awards are hosted.

I'm alive!

Going to resurrect this blog to tell everyone how good being in Canada is :) Leaving on the 26th August - two weeks to go!

Hopefully I will have time to post. As you can see below, I wasn't very successful when I went to Europe two years ago. I'll try though.

If you happen to be looking through the older posts below and get to the one about a new blog .... don't bother. It is dead, very dead.
