We're goin' back to Cali.. cali.. cali

We left the snow in Georgia and arrived in the warm sun at Burbank airport in California and oh, what an awesome feeling...  Bobby picked us up and within 10 minutes of leaving the plane and we were on our way to Hollywood to Bobby's crib (the LabOratory).  I had to leave Rudee with Tatiana so we're really missing her : ( but Tatiana sends me photo updates of her which I really love!

This is Rudee and the neighbor's dog "Monty" just before we left -
First stop in Cali was the awesome surfy Wahoo restaurant on Wilshire Street.  We had a very pleasant lunch and worth mentioning was the service with a smile x10 (cool, not fake and annoying I mean).  Awesome place and great food. I think I must have been too hungry to take my camera?




Jon, Bobby, Hollywood Steve, and several others rode flatland at the Studio City parking lot and I sat in the sun watching.  It was soooo beautiful and warm.  After the guys got their flatland fill we headed to a Chinese restaurant, then to Hollywood Steve's abode to oggle at his impressive record collection.

When Hollywood got nervous about us all up in his expensive collection, we headed just down the street to a bar for a few expensive beers, then pooped out early on the futon. 

The next day was warm enough to get in a bathing suit for a few before heading to see the infamous "Hollywood" sign! First, we stopped at California Donuts to get some coffee fuel and Bobby a donut.



Then drove up to get a sweet view of "Hollywood", yeah!





We were still tired from the 3 hour time difference, plus no sleep from taking off for a very early flight so we chilled a little more at Bobby's before heading to Studio City again. 
Around 4:30 we headed out to see who all was in town for the flatland jam, then left to eat Thai food at a place called Torung.  Jon and I ordered Red Curry with pork, Pineapple rice, and some kind of ginger soup with sea creatures that we had no problems finishing.




The above photo is Jon's flaming soup!


The ruins of dinner and a bellyache later...

we bounced it off a little by walking Paula and her friend back to the funky metro.
