LA Trip!

Weee'rrreeee baaaaccckkk!  I had a WONDERFUL time in Los Angeles, CA with my mom this past weekend!  These two VA ladies jumped off the plane on Thursday afternoon and hit the ground running!  Day one included a fabulous meal at the Pink Taco (yes really) and an afternoon spent hitting the hard streets of LA- Rodeo Drive, followed by pre-dinner drinks at L’Ermitage.  Dustin is a friend of Blair’s brother Kyle, but after that sweetie spent 30 minutes chatting and taking pics with my mom and me, he is officially my friend too.  Dustin is the front desk manager of this seriously fabulous hotel.  If you are in LA and have a lot more money than I do, you should definitely stay there. 

Friday was highlighted by a tour of the “Homes of the Stars.”  We knew what we were getting into, and even asked our hotel concierge to book a “cheesy” tour for us.  He delivered!  Here is one of the spectacular shots of the incredible homes….

Mom and I had dinner at Spago later that evening and then headed back to the hotel for our nightly bottle of wine. If you are wondering if Spago is really that good, the answer is YES!!!

Our final day was spent touring beautiful Santa Monica and the complete freak show that is Venice Beach.  Mom flexed her muscles at Muscle Beach and we headed out to 3^rd Street Promenade.  It was the perfect ending to a perfect girl’s trip! 

I seriously need to figure out how to rotate pictures in Blogger...
