Just got back from the west coast of USA & I had a most wonderful time indeed! Although I can't apply the same enthusiasm to my poor wallet :p Contrary to my previous experiences of visiting a western country, this was a really pleasant one. Never once was I made to feel inferior because of my colour & everyone was so friendly that I didn't quite know how to react. Furthermore, with good pals like Joe & Dionne around, nothing can get me down.
In transit at Narita Airport & the 1st thing we rushed for was ramen! The restaurant didn't have it but we didn't really care what we ate just as long as it's authentic Japanese food. So we happily settled for udon instead.
And of course, a souvenior to bring along
After almost 20 hours of no shower & minimum toilet usage time, I think I look fairly decent
Guess where's our 1st stop?
Then the tour officially starts
A bride at her bridal shoot
Here we are, in Los Angeles, California
Sandra, who's unfortunate enough to be my room-mate
Rodeo Drive!
Can you believe I got slammed for wearing shorts to board the plane & on the trip?! (Behind my back of course) Preposterous!
Just had to stop for a cuppa to warm ourselves up
No time for Madame Tussauds now. We'll get to that later.
We barely slept during the flight & it's definitely showing
I think I blend right in!
Not that I love Gwyneth Paltrow or anything, just a random star I came across to show off my beloved PINK Dr. Martens!
That's about as much tour as we got out of Hollywood & LA. The itinerary calls for more important things like shopping :p
Chow time again
Finally checked in to Double Tree @ Anaheim for a good night's rest
