From Las Vegas to Hollywood

24th July (Las Vegas/Los Angeles Time)

Leaving Las Vegas and grabbing an opportunity to take a photo with Zhang Wen, a Chinese currrently studying in Australia and who joined the tour during her vacation now.
Finally seeing greenery as we approached Los Angeles.And missed rice so much that I chose Yoshinoya for lunch.

Hmmm, fresh food at last!

Had to say farewell to some of the new found friends : Nima, Tesh, Debbie and Shuberdu (names might not be spelt correctly) whom I’ve made over the past 4 days. Including our tour guide, Charlene (picture below), whom I’ve come to appreciate much. Sadz!
Reaching Hollywood in Los Angeles!

Walking the walk of Fame. And putting my foot in the picture to show my presence =p









And the foot and handprints of the stars.

I wonder how old Julie Andrew was when she left her prints here.. or if this print is even real =p




Actually the walk of fame and the prints were quite a disappointment. I had expected them to be much bigger but they were only a small area.








At the all famous Kodak Theatre which has become the home of the annual Oscar Awards Ceremony.





It's a big 4 storey Kodak Theatre.






Taking the road to Hollywood =p


And reaching it.. Can you see the word "Hollywood" on the right top of the mountain?

Getting closer to Hollywood.

Pretending to be a star, busking in the light of photographers.

The photo below is dedicated to all my closest sisters (galfrens). I'm not buying this back for you, so please take this photo as a souvenir. =p



Many buskers on the streets, From Marilyn Monroe..




To Cartoon Characters like Spongebob Squarepants and Spiderman.


Chose to have noodles for dinner! How I miss good old Chinese food. =)
Food is very affordable here. This bowl of Wanton Mee is only USD3.25. With 10 wanton (the fillings are prawns instead of pork tho) and a lot of noodles, i would say that this is cheap!
Another friend, Shu Hong, that i made on the trip.
And here's my budget hotel..With a super king sized bed, armchair and study table.. Missed the internet too as there's no free wireless access in the desert! Missed talking to mom! =)
