Hollywood & Santa Monica

Part two of the BCS Championship Trip Blog: We went to Hollywood and Santa Monica on Friday. It was fun. I did not expect Hollywood to be like it was. I was thinking "Glamour". It's not dirty or gross... just not what I expected it. We checked out The Walk of Fame, Grauman's Chinese Theater, The Kodak Theater and tons of other sights on our Bus tour. We saw the Hotel where they filmed Pretty Woman: The Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills, Rodeo & Sunset Drives... you name it, we probably saw it. Brent liked to call Rodeo Drive "Ro-de-o" just like the ones cows and bull riders are at. We ended the day by going to Santa Monica. I am really glad we went there. Besides the game it was my favorite part of California.

Thanks Brent for the $12 Dollar Picture!

We had a great time. I can't believe it's been a week since we went out West. I wish we could have stayed longer and saw more of California. Hopefully one day we will go to wine country and maybe San Francisco.
