Here we Are in LA LA Land

How strange was it driving away from the 95 degrees and blue skies of Palm Springs and half way along the I-10 we run into a sky that is grey and low cloud ---I thought we were seeing the dreaded LA smog again-- but apparently it was just a crap days weather.

Talking of which the next week does not look to be too good around mostly predicting around 70 degrees so what a change from what we have had for the last few weeks but I guess we should be grateful for what we have had and just enjoy the area and I am sure that the pool will be warm anyway--whatever, I am not gonna get stressed by this.

So we are here in the Vagabond Hotel in Glendale---
 Which is deja-vue again as this is precisely the hotel that we stayed in when we came here about 6 years ago -- it is ok but there are still the odd vagrants around and noisy at night. But I guess there are always some benefits---like this which is directly over the road and has been built since we were last here----
 
And it opened only yesterday morning---
 
And is part of Brand Square----

It has Armani, Gucci, Apple, among others in the square but before the kids get too excited --we did not shop in any of them.
 
Last night we ate in a good little place called Fox's---
 
On every table there is a toaster --we had to ask---it seems that they get so busy that they give the customers the bread and let them make their own toast--go figure.
 
Ok, so going to get a coffee and then we will see what we are going to do today.
 
So coffee is done and cant get the game on TV so we are going out to Long Beach for the day.
 
The weather ca say whatever it likes for next week, because we are so lucky to have had such an amazing time and besides we are going to stay in a great hotel, with a huge beach to walk along, the pool will not have turned to ice overnight and we are going to be spending time with some really great people---so there is no down side to all this.
 
Plus of course that we have to get prepared for the weather back in the UK, so bring it on baby.
 
Now for christs sake Chelsea, lets put the noisy neighbours back in their box with a good win today---come on you bluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuues.
