Hollywood Baby!


After the long and lonely night drive from Las Vegas to Los Angeles we were greeted by yet another bright and sunny day. We decided to head up to Hollywood to see what we could see.


What is there to really say about Hollywood? It's a normal city like any other yet everyone who has never been there seems to thinks it must be a paridise full of beautiful people and movie stars. Well, it sort of is but it is actually quite boring too.


Grauman's Chinese Theatre, seen in the photos here, is a good example. There is an immense amount of movie, and therefore cultural, history saved forever in the hard concrete in the forecourt. Charlie Chaplin, Joan Crawford, Shirley Temple, Judy Garland, Bob Hope, Gene Autry, Dick Van Dyke, George Burns, Clint Eastwood, Tom Hanks, and Robin Williams just to name a few.


But after looking for minute or two what do you do, talk to one of the out of work actors dressed up like Batman or Jack Sparrow for tourist's photos?
