A day in Jen's Visit: Los Angeles



This was written in December and was only posted later.


It is only a day in between after the Oceanside Reunion when the Los Angeles people of Batch 80 gave Jen a tour of the City. This was headed by Amber as he knows the City better than anybody (he needs to know shortcuts for there were a lot of women looking for him). It was monday when Mylene picked Jen up from Norhridge and gave her the 1st tour of the day. As usual, when women where together they end up at the MALL on this day happens to be Northridge Mall. They call me up and got ready too (i'm suppossed to be from duty that day). Amber passed by our house and pick me up with the women in tow at almost 4 pm. We were rushing because we need to be on the 1st part of the afternoon tour before the sun sets.

The 1st part of the 2nd tour of the day lead us to the Hollywood sign (the actual one, not the one at Universal). The road going to the sign was narrow and tight but Amber is very familiar with the place and knows every rock and turn of the road (there is woman involved again). He was able to drive his big truck with out hitting anything. When we reached the place we got our pictures taken. Since I forgot my camera tripod we beg somebody to take our pictures. We were enjoying our tour and talking out loud that some people who where filming at the area told us to be quiet (we do not know that there was filming going on). OK, so we left the area.

The 2nd part of the tour was still around Hollywood. We went to a place I never expect at Hollywood, Hollywood lake. I have been living in the area for the last 8 years and I never knew that there was a lake on top of Hollywood Hills. The place was nice and peaceful overlooking Hollywood area. On top of the vista and we got our pictures taken.

We went back to Mylenes' house and waited for Rey (he wanted to throw a dinner with the batch, in honor of Jen). We then went to Barrio Fiesta at Glendale and ate. During the dinner the stories were told over the meal and by 9:30 we decided to go home and be ready for another meeting the following day.
