LA's the Place

One last fling for a very busy summer. We all packed our bags and headed to LA. Labor Day Weekend just happened to be record highs jumping into 3 digits in the southland .... but did that deter us???? Nahhhhhhhh. First we hit Rodeo Drive. After a fabulous lunch @ 208 Rodeo Dr. we headed out for some window shopping.



But shopping Rodeo Drive wasn't the purpose of our trip. Did I mention that Wicked is still playing in LA?????



While exploring Rodeo Drive, Katie found Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery & Beverly Hills Liposuction. Too bad we are only here for a weekend. This is the place where you can really spot the stars.




Tonight we headed to Hollywood & the Pantages Theater to take in a show ..... now what was it called?????



Sunday morning we walked the grounds of the Beverly Hills Hotel before we brunched at the Polo Lounge. While we were brunching in the lap of luxury who walked in but Ashton Kucher & Demi Moore. They were very well behaved and we didn't mind at all that they decided to join us for brunch.



If you haven't heard, I have it baaaad for Megan Hilty, Glinda in Wicked. She's FABULOUS and the real reason for this trip. Just had to see her one more time before her contract ends in November.



This is probably the best hotel that we have ever stayed in. Does it look familiar??? Can you say "Pretty Woman" & "Beverly Hills Cop"?



OHMYGOSH, it's Julia Roberts!!!! Just kidding, it's Katie in Julia's elevator. It was a great weekend and the perfect end to a perfect summer.
