This is L.A ...

Once again, I haven't blogged in awhile but this time I have a great excuse! I was on vacation in a land filled with lush palm trees, terrific shopping, beautiful people and (usually) lots of sunshine. I went to Los Angeles and while the weather was less than pleasant, it was better than the snow storms my friends back home had to endure and the laughs I shared with my best friend
 more than made up for it. Seriously, we're really funny.


This was my third time visiting L.A but my first as a single lady and without any men in company, which made for an interesting and very fun adventure. We ate, shopped, made ourselves pretty, laughed, danced and enjoyed every ounce of sunshine we were blessed with. It doesn't get much better than that, does it?

 Here are some highlights...


Our first walk in the sun!



Our destination? Latte's at Urth Cafe





Shopping at The Grove

Shopping at Bloomy's at The Bev Center

Justine's faggle tooth

I wish they all could be California Girls

Dinner on Sunset. Audrey Inspired

 Yeah

lovely ladies before dinner at The Cheesecake Factory & drinks at Fiesta Cantina. Also know as the night I met old scruff and Justine got hit on by a swedish chick.

The newest dance move in LA. The "double slap" or The "devil's slap". Whichever you prefer

Ladies before going to Happy Endings

We met boys from Alaska and formed a flip cup team with an amazing handshake.

Somehow Dawn and I ended up on a double date.

It may have rained every night we tried to go out.

Palm trees are my favourite

Thank you to a best friend who always makes me feel beautiful inside and out, laughs with me, cries with me and gave me my best trip yet! I love you & your faggle tooth miss juxt!

Finally, I leave you with my favourite of all the songs written about California...

Made up my mind to make a new start, going to california with an achin' in my heart. Someone told me there's a girl out there with love in her eyes & flowers in her hair.
