TOUR OF LA (Day 40 JULY 23)











Judy and Joe said that they always wanted to travel Sunset Boulevard from beginning to end. They decided today was a good day, so we could all experience it together.

We started our journey at the Griffith Observatory high above the HOLLYWOOD Hills. A bit of recent trivia about the Hollywood sign. It recently needed repair and funds were not available so they were going to take it down. Hugh Hefner, of Playboy fame, donated the money and the sign was saved. BUNNIES! Did someone say BUNNIES! John and Joe were hoping to see the Playboy Bunnies.
The day was sunny and beautiful as we headed out of the park. We took a slight detour along Hollywood Boulevard to see the Walk of the Stars, Hollywood and Vine, Kodak Theater where the red carpet events take place, round Capital Records building, and Mann's Chinese Theater.

Back on Sunset Boulevard we saw the Comedy Store, the Viper Room and House of Blues. We crossed into Beverly Hills and saw the old Beverly Hills Hotel. We passed through Bel Air, Brentwood, Westwood, past UCLA, and the Pacific Palisades where governor, Arnold, has a home.
