Los Angeles  

I spent a week in the L.A area in 1997, but I did not go to Hollywood. I went passed there on a freeway and visited Burbank which is not too far from there, just behind the Hollywood Hills. I stayed in Pasadena most of the week, but also spent a night in Inglewood, which was a rough looking area and 3 nights in Buena Vista to the south near Anaheim. While I was staying there, I visited Disneyland which was a lot of fun!

To be totally honest, going to Hollywood and seeing celebrities did not really interest me as they are built up by the media to be greater people than they actually are.

I visited Los Angeles in 1993, 2001 and 2002. On my first trip there I did some sightseeing in Hollywood. I viewed Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Venice Beach and Universal Studios. I visited San Diego, Santa Barbara, Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Francisco also in sunny California. I hope that you will be able to visit Los Angeles and see famous Hollywood.

Hee hee. I've lived in LA all my life! Sometimes I wonder how others perceive this place . . . just like how I perceive other cities around the world. Yes, there are many artists here (including my husband and I). The ocean, the deserts, the mountains, the city, the countryside . . . almost everything is just a short drive away . . . I think many of us take this place for granted! This includes Hollywood . . . I wonder what about it appeals to you (this was a discussion I had with my hubby when we saw the sign going to the museum the other weekend . . . how others must perceive "Hollywood"). Hope you get to visit LA soon!

Well even i heard Los Angeles is nice place. Even i wish to watch the place.
