For my second weekend in the US, we travelled up to Pasadena, which is close to LA to attend a wedding. John's room mate from Georgetown, Jason was getting married to his university sweetheart, Cat.
Ironically, these were the first US friends of John's that I had met in July 2004 when we visited in Minneapolis. Jason loves cooking and in our short visit whipped us up some chocolate cookies, so I knew he and I would get on well.
As the wedding was an evening one, we spent part of the day looking around LA, as I had never been before. I know its tacky but I had to see the avenue of the stars.. There are now 2300 stars on the avenue and I decided to take a photo of a very old favorite of mine.. Nat King Cole.
Sadly there were no sightings of Posh and Becks or any movie stars for that matter. We drove around Rodeo Drive which has all the high street London stores which was funny. We did not get the chance to go to KTown either so no good Korean. We did however have Shabu Shabu (japanese hot pot) which was new for me.. I think I prefer the Chinese hot pot better.
I do think that LA is going to be a port of call for shopping, for good restaurants as all those that we have tried in San Deigo have been lacklustre with exception to Donovans.
