Miami Beach
I am really excited to be going to Miami on Sunday for my Birthday, can't wait to just lay around the pool and beach for a few days. Our hotel looks amazing - YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
More holiday snaps
Teddy wanted me to add a few more holiday snaps....
Yip there are some food ones in here. We went to a place in LA called Philippes its really famous for its french double dipped sandwich (they claim to have invented it) its basically a sub roll with the sides dipped in gravy/juices from the meats they put in them - you can get beef, pork, turkey, ham maybe some others any way they were delicious!! While we were there the local news crew were in filming.
One of our favourite places was a texas style bar/ restaurant right near our hotel... the ribs were mint and I am not even bothered about ribs usually.

The Golden State
Finally got round to posting some holiday snaps...
First stop L.A. mainly we hung out on Sunset Strip and went to lots of the infamous hang outs... Whiskey a go go, Viper Rooms, Formosa Cafe, Trocadero. I guess my favourite thing was seeing Steve Adler and having my book signed haha!

Did lots of the trashy tourist stuff like Universal Studios, hollywood stars and their homes... the black and white house is Simon Cowell's, 7515 Mullholland Drive is Tarantino's.
We did try to do something a little more cultural one day - we headed down town to one of the art galleries but it was closed ha!!
Next we spent a few days at Santa Monica & Venice beach... check out Teddy posing on Muscle Beach!!
Then we took the PCH 1 (Pacific Coast Highway) to San Franciso the scenery was amazing, only wish we had more time to stop and take more photos. The land gradually changes from almost desert like to lush green national parks with a rugged coast line all the way.
San Fran was really cool it has lots of character with the old Victorian houses and the steep hills, the Bay is really beautiful too. We did all the main tourist stuff - walked across the Bay Bridge, visited Alcatraz, took a ride on one of the old trolley cars.
