Road Trip Part 5

So for the first time on my road trip, I have internet 2 nights in a row. That means for a change I don't have to write 4 nights at once and it's actually pretty nice. So carrying on,

Day 9:
So we woke up this morning and headed into Los Angelos, the drive took about an hour, not bad at all compared to what we've been doing :) First we went and saw the Staples Center, which is where the Los Angelos Lakers play, it was really cool even though I don't really like the Lakers. Anyway, then we went to Hollywood and to see the Hollywood sign, which we got some pretty cool pictures of. After that we took the Walk of Fame which is that stretch of Hollywood with the stars all the way down the sidewalk with famous peoples' names in them. Then we got to that Chinese restaurant that has all the actors' hand prints and signatures in front, it's hard to explain but there will be pictures on Facebook. Anyway we ate at Jack in the Box which was awesome, I wish they had them in the Raleigh area. From there we drove down route 1 (gorgeous) to Santa Barbara. For those of you who don't know, route 1 is supposed to be like one of the top 10 most beautiful roads in the country, the entire thing is going along the pacific ocean. Anyway so then we reached Santa Barbara where we're staying tonight with one of Kyle's free extended stay passes. We dropped our stuff in the room and we went to the beach! It was way different. Instead of millions of seashells there were millions of rocks that had been smoothened out by the ocean, some of them were perfect for skipping and we all skipped rocks, we taught Kyle how. Also there was basically a mountain next to the beach, where the sand dunes would usually be in NC. The water was the biggest difference, instead of that greenish color the water was completely blue, it was beautiful. Anyway since then we've just been relaxing in the hotel and thats where I am right now writing this blog. Love you guys!
