We were suppose to do a bridal session as well, but unfortunately the dress wasn't ready when I arrived. So we all got to spend Sunday doing more sightseeing! I saw the famous Hollywood sign and even went down to Hollywood Blvd. It was different, not really what I expected, but I did find some things that interested me.
Amber told me that there would be street performers there, so my mind immediately went back to a college trip I took to New Orleans, L.A. and the street performers that worked on the streets there -mines, trumpet players, tap dancers, ect. I thought, "ok cool, nothing I haven't seen before." Ha! So we get there and there is Tinkerbell prancing in the street and I am like "whoa, seriously??" Next to her is Peter Pan with Cat Women not far behind, yes Cat Women (she was a real witch by the way). Anyway, Amber looks at me and said "see, I told you." And then I thought, "Duh, this is Hollywood." And in all Hollywood style, you have to pay for EVERYTHING, which this wasn't any different. You have to pay about 5 bucks just to take a picture of them (going back to why Cat Women was such a witch). And since I don't have 5 bucks to spear on wannabe actors in Halloween costumes they bought from Wal-Mart, I just threw on my wide angle and shot at the waist. They never knew what hit'em...
Ok, well these guys costumes were a little better than what you could of gotten at wally world, but still.
The next two weren't street performers, but still caught my interest...
See the sign? Crazy huh!?! And they probably cost as much a $200,000 house mortgage here in Texas!
At the end of the day I have to say I enjoyed California. And really really appreciate the generosity of Amber and Jonathan for flying me out there and showing me around. Thanks guys, you were awesome! See you October12th!
