well im afriad this blog ia a bit of a lie, im home now but i thought it'd be nice to have an LA blog. I left Nadi at 10pm on 21st and arrived in LAX after a 10 hour flight at 1pm on same day. mmm, time travel. getting through the airport was a ruddy nightmare, the security was pretty tight and i had to wait 2 and half hours just to get through passport control where they scan your finger prints (cue amusing stupid moment where the man said put your left finger on the scanner pad...no your left one...yes that one...no thats your right, ma'am'. im not good after long flights. jumped in a cab driven by a mental armenian man who spent a long time airing his greivances about the americans (umm, why you here then?!) and got to my hotel on Beverly Boulevard. the place was a 50's motel which was prettyu cool and then i got to my room, which was mahoosive and had the biggest bed i think ive ever come across! i was well impressed. after a freshen up and a quick nap i went down to the Beverly Center and did some window shopping at Bloomingdales, Macys, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and, bizarrely, H&M and Claires Accessories. the people watching was great- women in cheap-but-expensive fluoro tracksuits and kids in matching outfits, babies head to toe in labels, ordinary looking men and women with tiny chihauhaus in coats, dresses and even a tiara. i got a bit lost trying to find my way back to the hotel and ended up outside the Cedars Sinai clinic where all the celebs go when theyre ill/rehabbing/having celebrity babies! this was quite exciting for me. by now it was about 40 degrees and i was jetlagged to hell so i went back to my room and watched some informative US TV (they love celebs SOOO much, every other channel was about them!!) and slept like a log. i woke up and had a hi-protein breakfast at the 50's diner downstairs, then went back to LAX to fly home. had i lingered at the airport when i arrived the previous day i might have bumped into Britney acording to the news on my taxi drivers radio. dammit!!
