Day 89

---

So we are two days from our next run in san Francisco and we don’t leave LA till 11am in the morning today we set out for Hollywood for a day of sight seeing and then Philip going to take me to the ball game.

Hollywood boulevard Hall of fame is a mile and half of showbiz stars names from the last 50 years ranging from Kermit the frog to Michael Jackson who’s star seemed to be the most popular from the way all and sundry were posing for pictures with it. Its thirsty work so we stop off a drink at the pig and whistle a Hollywood landmark who can count Spencer Tracey Shirley temple and Howard Hughes pre Looney among its former locals and lets face it there are only so many stars you can look at so we stay in the pig and whistle till its time to go and watch the dodgers v the met at the dodger stadium

The LA dodgers moved to LA in 1958 after a land dispute from Brooklyn New York 2462 miles away! Tonight they were celebrating 55 years since 55 when they won the world series(the World Series is named after the newspaper that sponsored the competition and is not a claim at being a World championship a popular mis conception) but how you can celebrate winning a title 2462 miles way over 50 years ago is beyond me. Philip says its only like moving Everton to Kirby not this again , we have got an early morning flight to San Francisco tomorrow.....
