I know I said I left for Los Angeles, but I only stayed there a night. I studied in Bakersfield and lived with my host family there also :) they're very very nice  :wub:

my host family has three dogs. A female blue nose Pitbull and two male Chihuahuas. I came disliking little dogs, but I came home loving them  :lol: these little guys are so much fun! Meet Louie (winking) and Buster

Now say hello to my favorite girl: Dipstick! She's 8 months old but she doesn't look it... she's petite. I thought she was 4 months old! She lost her baby tooth while playing with me one day... Totally freaked me out  :wacko: I didn't expect such amount of blood..

And these are pics from my L.A city tour. Not a big basketball fan so never heard of Staples Center, but apparently that is where the L.A Lakers play

Not a city tour if we didn't visit Beverly Hills  ;) well, at least take a picture on the famous sign...

We also visited Hollywood, but I got too busy shopping I forgot to take pictures  :P anyways, this is the entrance sign to The Avila Adobe (don't ask how to pronounce that) in Olvera Street, a huge street where Mexican culture flourishes. Apparently they hold an annual Cinco de Mayo celebration in this street... which I suspect is some kind of a loud carnival where people dance and dress funny x)

Still think this is funny... I don't know what's it called in America but in Indonesia we call this path for crossing pedestrians "the zebra cross". Zebra, because it's usually white stripes on top of a black road! But oh well California is a colorful state x)

Days later we went to Anaheim to visit Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. The firework show is totally amazing. Every blast matches the song! This picture is taken just a few minutes before they start lighting up the sky :)

And then of course we visit Universal Studios. Minions rule! I am totally in love with Despicable Me :D Despicable Me 2 doesn't have a really good plot, but it's still hilarious and fun to watch :)

This Megatron actually talks, acts and walks like the one in the movie. Although not as big, it quite entertained a number of visitors. I got a picture of me with Megatron, but not in my phone...

Usually crosswalks here are painted white here too. I'm guessing you were in West Hollywood there ;)
