withdrawal

I miss LA. This past weekend was such a blast, I still cannot stop thinking about it. I really had a lot of fun. It was just Mark and me... hanging out together, no kids.. just doing whatever our little hearts desire. Let's see, what did we do in LA? Well, it was our first time there (I know, silly huh? Of the many times we've been down in SoCal, we've never really bothered to stop in LA)... anyway, saw the Observatory in Griffith Park, Hollywood sign from the Observatory, the Walk of Fame stars, Chinese Theatre and Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highlands... and drove around looking for Valley Oak, Jeff Lewis (of "Flipping Out") house. Turns out it was in the Hollywood Hills (nice houses, hilly neighborhood... definitely not my cup of tea).. and of course, it was in the "gated" part of Valley Oak Drive so we didn't get to see it. Oh well, it was still kind of cool trying to find where it was, navigating it using the $5 map we bought at CVS Pharmacy. All and all, LA was a lot of fun.. the Nike+ race turned out super fantublous... everything was super neat! Oh yes, we stayed at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites in downtown LA... very nice place, w/ a great view on the 30th floor... so yes, it was very luxurious, sort of, you can say. Also in LA, Mark and I also visited this apartment where his parents and him lived for a short while back in the early 70's. Turns out the house still looks very much the same, nice and all in this great neighborhood off of Los Feliz.

Lalalalala... I can't wait to go back to LA, especially the beaches to just hang out. Venice Beach was very nice. Love it! :)
