I got to go to Hollywood on my last day in California!! whoohoo
Here is me with the Hollywood sign in the background.... but it was so cloudy and smoggy that you'll just have to take my word on it. ha! 
so i blew it up so you could see...
then we ventured to the Chinese theatre 
- ya never know who you were going to run into!
We went looking for Johnny Depp's star... but it just so happened that it was the ONLY star on the whole street being "worked on" that day. Of course it was!But that's ok because we accidentally stumbled upon Matt Damon's star. not all was lost.
After that we went to the Getty - an art museum. It had a fantastic building! 
and a beautiful garden with tons of places to just relax and read a book or journal...

don't worry, we were prepared for our long journey of driving.... we had Dr peppers and snacks and the directions from mapquest and of course good tunes... but the drive was beautiful!
we even passed a few farms with tons of cows and i felt like i was in india again....*tissue* we passed mountains and farms and windmills and vineyards and water and i could keep going but i guess you'll have to come visit me when i move to cali to find out for yourself! 
We stopped off in Fresno to have lunch with one of our friends from college - the Vicki!!! 
then we popped back in the car to stop off in Madera to pick up my bags that BG's wonderful family took back to the US for me ....
and then continued on our way until we reached : SAN FRANSISCO!! 
we went to dinner with sophia and checked out a great indian restuarant called Naan and Curry. (great suggestion amanda!) it was good stuff!!! I know you are probably thinking "why in the world were you eating indian food??" because it is sooooo tastey! that's why. 
The next day we went strollin' about downtown san fran.... 
we got to see the infamous "bush man" he hides behind this bush and jumps out at people who aren't paying attention to watch them jump. it is hilarious!
we saw plenty of street performers trying to earn some tips... never a dull moment! 
we also got to check out the Sea Cats (formerly known as Sea lions) and it might have been my favorite part. haha!
then the next day we checked out golden gate sem. I loved it too! first off we met the president and chatted for a few minutes, he was very friendly and helpful. i learned that they have just changed the journeyman scholarship from 12 hours to 24 credit hours! whoohoo!! It is a super small campus which is nice and there is always something to do in the area - i just loved it, i can't even explain it. I know that once i stepped foot there, i just had peace that this is where God wants me and everything that was said on the tour just confirmed that this is where i want to be. It just clicked for me. i am just soo excited!! 
I love this place! As Walt Disney says to those who visit disneyland.....
My friend Ally came and met us at the Disneyland!!! AND we got to see MICKEY!! whoohoo!
don't you worry, we rode the teacups!
HMMMmmmm.... I have been in California for almost 2 weeks and i love this place... i mean its no texas but its still pretty amazing.
