We recently visited Los Angeles for the very fist time and my first and last impression can be summed down to one word 'traffic'. LA has a LOT of it. If you've ever seen the SNL skit,
Californians, you know that they are always talking about traffic and now I completely understand. This photo was from our first night in LA. Granted it was Friday at 5pm and around rush hour, but we saw the same on Saturday and Sunday!
We still managed to have a fun time. We stayed right in Hollywood opposite the Dolby theatre where they hold the Oscars. We went to Malibu and Santa Monica beach, saw Soundgarden live
* and ate lots of delicious ethnic food that only a large city can offer. The highlight of our trip, was seeing Steven Spielberg leaving his house in his 'Expensive' car, when we were on the celebrity hill. And the best part is he waved to everyone on our tour bus. Even our tour operator was uber-excited! Here is a snapshot of our trip.
