Over the weekend of July 4th, my sister (Sydnee) and I went to fabulous Los Angeles for a short, fun-filled vacay. Reed & I gave this trip to Syd as her high school graduation gift and we had a BLAST!! It was our first ever sisters trip and we've decided we just might do one every year from here on out! Here's a run down of what we did:
Thursday: we arrived kind of late (especially since we had to rent a car) but we had dinner at 25 Degrees which was a fun burger joint in our hotel
Friday: had lunch at The Ivy, strolled down Robertson Blvd., drove around Rodeo Drive and Beverly Hills, visited the Santa Monica Pier (and rode the ferris wheel!), had dinner at STK and toured Madame Toussaud's Wax Museum (super fun!)
Saturday: drove to Malibu, walked around Paradise Cove, had lunch at The Paradise Cove Cafe, went on a celebrity home tour (SO NEAT), shopped on Hollywood Blvd, found People's Revolution and had dinner at Ketchup (which is owned by Ashton Kutcher)
Sunday: had brunch at The Polo Lounge, spent all day at Universal Studios, and had dinner at Chateau Marmont (AMAZING)
We seriously had so much fun soaking up the Hollywood life but were slightly disappointed because we didn't see ONE single movie star! oh, well...there's always next year!!
there's the HOLLYWOOD sign!!!
our historic hotel...so neat and it's haunted by marilyn monroe
