Well...if we were in any doubt about American food and a possible link to obesity....it has all been cleared up with our first meal in Los Angeles. We decided that it would be criminal to come to the States and not to try proper American nachos as a STARTER to our meal. A starter!!!!! The plate of nachos arrived, smothered in cheese, black olives, chillies, guacamole and sour cream.... It was a big enough plate of nachos to feed six people, let alone two lol.
We had almost made a dent in the nachos when our main course arrived. Medium rare steak burgers.....Dave and I just looked at each other, realising there was no hope of finishing the monster meal and dissolving into giggles at the idea that anyone actually could. Ridiculous amount of food but it was all gorgeously cooked and really really tasty. We ended up getting a doggy box for Dave to tackle the rest at breakfast!
Los Angeles itself is very warm today....about 65 degrees and sunny. We are 8 hours behind you guys in the UK so updates may come at random times for you! We are in the hotel tonight and then joining the ship tomorrow for the first day of the cruise.
The Marriott is an amazing hotel too... We have a balcony...two single beds, (clearly made for the larger framed person because they look like to double beds )lol. It is posh and has everything you need right inside the grounds. ( this is because venturing outside the grounds of the hotel would, almost certainly, result in death from being shot, stabbed or force fed corn dogs.).
Seriously tho....not meant to wander far from the hotel as we are close to south central LA and we would stand out like sore thumbs lol.
Will send some pictures from our balcony soon....next update wills be from the ship! Going to go sleep now.
