Vi startet litt rolig i dag, med meksikansk frokost på en lokal Taqueria(som en kebabsjappe, bare at de ikke selger rotter, men taco, burritos etc). Vi hadde avtalt å besøke Terese Stavenjord Bergheim med familie(en barndomsvenninne av meg). Hun bor i Mission Viejo sør for LA sammen med mannen og tre barn. På veien kjørte vi forbi Huntington Beach og Newport Beach, som er flotte strender og "seaside communities". Hos Terese fikk vi servert grillet kylling, salat og tilbehør, og koste oss skikkelig i hagen. Familien Bergheim bor flott til, i landlige omgivelser og med en fin hage. Etter avsluttet grilling, satte vi kursen nordover igjen, denne gang mot Hollywood. Anja hadde fått det for seg at hun skulle se "Walk of fame", på tross av advarsler om at området var forholdvis skuffende. Etter ca 15 ... read more

Absolutely knackered but WOW, have done so much already and only been here just over 24 hrs.

Just so you know, in the photo of my badly bruised knee I'm actually in the process of getting some pretty bad sunburn on my legs... so really I should post an update as my leg has actually gotten more discoloured and gross since then. Joy! Much love, Streets. x... read more

Before we know it, the sun is gone. My eyes try to adjust but I can’t figure out where we are. Then just as unexpected as the sudden darkness, I see them. Trees. My vision is a bit fuzzy, but the wide slabs of wood are unmistakable. I’m in a forest. And we’re not alone. I hear roars. The ground shakes. I hold on tight to the railings of the train car we’re on. And that’s where I first I lay my eyes on them. A group of T-rexes surround us, their eyes locked on us, charging straight towards us. We’re toast. I hear screaming from the other car. I just sit there, slack-jawed, my eyes trained towards a couple of the prehistoric beasts on the left side. A couple more on the right side.
