California Dreaming.....

Oh My God....what a day!!!Paige dropped me off at Pot Authority this Morning, with my trusty backpack In tow and I headed to JFK....Goodbye New York, Hello California!Arrived at LA International to be faced with disaster....Dont have a clue where Andrea is?!?!?Her phone wont work,Havent a clue how to get hold of her!!!So had to start the search of finding somewhere to stay...a little old guy that worked at the airport called Leon arranged a hostel in Venice Beach for me and this really weird guy came to pick me up in a truck!After stopping at some plumbing supplies place I arrived at the Hostel only to be told I would be in the one up the road...this is after I had paid when he had shown me the room in the first hostel!!!!Got to this place, couldnt believe my eyes.....mouse poo, filthy, no lock on the door, couple of prostitutes hanging around outside...delightful!Turned out I was staying there alone with this bunch of shady, alcoholic, middle aged men!Not a good start.I didnt have a bed but a matress on the floor!Final straw came was when I saw a cockroach crawl across my pillow,tears galore!

Great timing, within 5 minutes Paige rang to check I had arrived safely, the whole auful story spilled out and within another 5 minutes two of her friends arrived at the door to pick me up and take me to there place where I was now welcome to stay!!!Talk about a saviour!!!!They lived in a beautiful apartment, 2 ensuite bathrooms, balcony, the lot, right on Venice Beach!!!!How lucky was I!

Here is Melissa and Katie in their apartment!

Really lovely girls, good fun and they totally looked after me!That evening they cooked some yummy mexican food for me and then took me to 'Coldstone' this fabulous ice cream place where you choose all your flavours, syrups, candy and they smoosh it all up for you!!!Gorgeous!!!! Ive heard them worship the place on the "Osbournes"! It was so cool!!!I so want my very own ice cream parlour!!! Took a stroll along the pier before heading back to watch a movie which was actually the "Incredibles" which was strangley enjoyable!
