Day 3 in LA

---

Hey!
So today was my first be-a-tourist day - we went to Hollywood Blvd. We started off at the Wax Museum and then walked around looking at the golden stars in the pavement and the handprints at the Chinese Theatre. We also window-shopped at 'Hollywood and Highland' Mall - expensive shops but some weren't too bad. Visited Build-a-Bear - that is a messed up shop that I could spend an awful lot of money in :p looks very fun :p
On the way home we stopped at Trader Joe's, which is a cheap gourmet supermarket. It was really interesting to see the different cereals, breads and snack foods - and especially the ready-to-eat foods and frozen goods 😊 very tasty shop 😊
It was a very cool day all in all 😊
Our plan is to go to the Getty Centre tomorrow, with side trips to UCLA and the Beverly Centre mall. Thursday we are meeting Katyas friend Shannon and going for sushi in Little Tokyo with side trips to the Grove and or City Walk. Friday is Universal Studios day :D and saturday is the farmers market with Katya's family. well, thats the plan, at least - we'll see how it goes :p
Love to everyone back home! God bless!
