California - Day 7

When you travel with Sara, there is no rest for the weary! 

We started out early with our list of To Do's. 

First up...one of the most famous houses in television history! 

Do you recognize it?

The Brady Bunch!

The scenery in Los Angeles is crazy beautiful!

This is the home where Marilyn Monroe passed away. 

It's currently under renovations. 

Of course, I was obsessed with the OJ Simpson saga so we hunted down the houses. 

The condo Nicole Brown Simpson was murdered in front of has since been torn down and this house was rebuilt in it's place. 

Of course, we had to find OJ's Rockingham home. It is pretty secluded. 

We had to Universal City for lunch. 

We decided on Bubba Gump. 

I had the best burger, Addy had chicken fingers, and John and Ava split the seafood boil. 

The before and after!

Next we headed back to "The Boulevard". It was time for our rescheduled Hollywood Tour. 

But first up, The Dolby Theatre. 

This is where all of the awards shows are filmed. 

Jimmy Kimmel's studio

The tour started on Mulholland Dr. 

Again with the views. Goodness. 

Then we headed down to Beverly Hills. 

Rodeo Drive.

My favorite store! 

This is the location of Pretty Woman's shopping scene. 

Next it was on to celebrity homes. 

First up, Michael Jackson. 

This fence was what was shown after he passed away. This is where all of the flowers and signs were placed. 

The other side of the property. 

Fun fact: Elvis Pressley's house was right across the street. 

Taylor Swift

This was the entrance to a super swank housing development. 

Which is home to JLo and Britney Spears.

That black SUV was checking in. 

We tried so hard to get our driver to go in further to see who it was!

The entrance to the Playboy Mansion.

Katy Perry!

Next up was the Sunset Strip. 

I was over the top giddy for this!!! 

One would think I'm more Beverly Hills, trust me. I'm more Sunset Strip. 

The Whiskey A Go Go. 

This is where many bands were discovered. 

Including our beloved Crue. 

The Viper Room. Which is owned by Johnny Depp. 

This is also where River Phoenix overdosed. 

The Roxy. What I wouldn't have given to go in and have a drink. 

Back to The Boulevard for more scenery and a little shopping. 

We knew we probably would have time to stop back down there. 

Only John. 

We finished the night with pizza and a moonlight swim.
