We're All Going To Hollywood!!

The City Of Angels

This week we are going to the East Coast, Los Angeles California to be exact. This place is known for many many things. Its infamous for celebrities, movies, fame and fortune. Its said that if you have made it to Hollywood then you haven't made it. So to speak.
The drive from Nevada to California was a gorgeous view. 
This place is such an amazing place to visit if you're aren't from California. There is so much to do. I have only been once and I immediately fell in love with the place. I love California in general. I plan to move there one day once I get the money because its not only sights and celebrities California is known for. The cost of living is crazy high. But of course if you've made it big then it shouldn't be a problem, right? 

Kevin Hart's Star on the Hollywood Walk of a Fame.

Walking on Stars

Hollywood is based on the downtown area of Los Angles. Once place you need to visit is of course the Hollywood Walk of Fame, it goes on for 15 blocks. There have been a lot of people to earn a star, and it is funny because its nothing fancy, its just a sidewalk with stars embedded in it. Nothing special but its the principle of earning the star that makes it a place of history. It has so many celebrities from Backstreet Boys, Elvis Presley to even Mickey Mouse and many more


Going to the Movies

TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angles
Not to far from there many a few blocks depending where you are at is the well known, TCL Chinese Theatre where they have over 50 events a year from film festivals, ceremonies and even movie premieres. The time I went they were setting up for the premiere of The Great Wall starring Matt Damon. They were already kicking us out of the area. The place is such an iconic place for film. My picture is kind of bad but it was the only one I could get before they made us leave.

Now if you're looking for souvenirs to remember your amazing trip then there is one gift shop that I recommend is so awesome full of so much stuff. Its called La La Land, with no reference to the movie. Its so cool it has things from all your favorite Hollywood movies such as the Wizard of Oz, Fast and Furious, and so many more. They even have tiny oscars with different engravings such as Best Best Friend, Bets Dog Sitter, and Best Mom, etc. Theres too many to name.

Another place that is a must go is the Warner Brothers Studio Tour. Its so insightful and informative. But fair warning it might ruin movies for you. I loved the whole thing though. There is a
chance you might run into a celebrity or someone because they are 
always shooting a movie or TV show. unfortunately I didn't run into anyone. There is a lot of Harry Potter stuff, which I dont mind. At the end of the tour they have a gift shop and the actual set from the T.V show friends, where they sat on the couch with a real working central perks coffee shop. 

One of the biggest regrets I have is that I never got a picture of the Hollywood sign up in the mountains. I just couldn't find it for the life of me. Someone told me after I left that if I would've turned the corner at the LaLaLand gift ship I would've seen in perfectly. I was so mad at myself. 

Los Angeles/Hollywood is awesome place that I recommend everyone to visit. Its a lot of fun and you can make so many memories and you never know who you can run into.
