Arrow Join me on my trip - XVI - Welcome to California

After having a great time at the Fabulous Las Vegas we've now reached Los Angeles,CA.
It was a 4 hour bus ride from Las Vegas and I'm not sure about you
but I was way too asleep to know anything,I closed my eyes in Vegas and
opened them in LA. :-D Its 4 in the morning but we can not go out straight away
as one my best friends is going to join us on this trip and he'll be taking us around.
Unfortunately he had to visit his parents in India urgently so he missed Vegas and
Grand canyon with us.But now he is here, he threw his bags at home in Texas and
flew straight to join us despite the jet lag.
We met last 9 years ago, so it was really nice to see him again.


That's my best friend Ahmed, even after 9 years he still looks the same.
He'll be our guide in LA.We have our plan in hand, we are going to Universal studios
first.


We are never away from Hard Rock Cafe.



Santa just woke up after tiring Christamas night deliveries :-D


Its mad rush today... every ride has atleast 1 hour of waiting!!


Here's the entire series...

Very nice. I like the light and comp in your third photo.

Sorry that Universal was so crowded.

But it sure seems that you're having a great vacation.
