Here we are

Well, we arrived in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon, got to our hotel, met our friends, and went out for dinner. After dinner, Stefani and I sat in our room, very tired from all the flying and shuttling, and watched the planes land. It was a nice hotel; we got upgraded to an executive suite, which basically meant a chaise lounge instead of an armchair, and we weren't on the lowest floor listening to the partying in the ballrooms.
This morning we had breakfast in the hotel. Why do fancy hotels think that they can charge an arm and a leg for stuff. A cup of coffee was $4.50! Just because it is a Starbuck's blend? That means they should be paying me for drinking it! And $6 for a couple of pieces of toast? Holy Shamoly! Anyways, the people we were visiting with had breakfast comped to them because they had problems with their room, so it was covered...but still!
After we checked out, Stefani and I picked up our rental car, and headed for the beach. We hung out at Venice Beach for a few hours, soaking in the sightsm sun, sand, and smell of cannibas. I could see White Rock beach becoming similar, and it would be kinda cool, without the pot :o)
So, here we are at our hotel. We've already taken a dip in the pool. This hotel is great. We have a suite, with a separate kitchenette and living room. The bathroom has a huge jacuzzi tub, big enough for a small Asian family.
We are starting to get hungry, and we are thinking about steak, so I'm going to check out some restaurant reviews.

chow!
