LA part 4
****PICTURE OVERLOAD****
The last day we were there we decided to take advantage of the time we had with Tory and Janie and their little famly and spend a few hours with them. (The rest flew out that morning) So we loaded up and headed out towards Hollywood Blvd since we were in that "celebrity sighting" mood. I'm kidding. Kind of. Plus I've never been to any of these places before. Toby was extremely sweet and had previously looked up where Audrey Hepburns walk of fame star was (Vine St)since she happens to be one of my all-time favorite actresses and so we first drove to her Star. That was really really really exciting to me. Then as we are walking down Hollywood Blvd we happened upon Sandra Bullocks who is a close second for me. I've never been in front of the Chinese theater and The Kodak theater either...both which were so neat to see. I was able to see Cary Grant and Gregory Pecks handprints who I LOVE and Doris Day's who is my namesake...(which may seem weird seeing as my name is Josie but her screen name was Josie in a movie my parents loved.) Call me old fashioned but those are the "celebrities" that have earned my respect. Like my Dad would say they just don't make them like that anymore:) Toby put his hands in Denzel Washingtons prints since he gets told he resembles him quite often. So while I got to see stars and handprints of my favorites the kids were busy meeting the likes of Buzz Lightyear, Spiderman, and Shrek. Didn't know those "people" are working strictly for tips but figured that out as soon as we were done taking their pictures and there hands went straight out. Lame. And of course we took a picture in front of the famous Hollywood sign. Why it was all so exhilirating to me I don't know but I couldn't wipe the smile off my face all day. Tt sure is a fun place to experience once...and then head back to home sweet home:) We LOVED spending time with Tory and Janie and even more so with little Ayson and Macey...sorry but they're just super cute:) Same time same place next year? ---p.s. Our hotel was located just a few blocks away from FOX studios and as we drove by I had no choice but to make Toby pull over so I could take a picture with Jack Bauer. The sign was so sweet and gave tribute to the FINAL HOURS of 24 which just so happens to be one of, if not the, greatest show of all time. I got to take this picture right before the season and show finale that we watched moments after we got home. It was meant to be.
