California by Miranda

Sara did an awesome job describing in detail our LA trip! I thought I would just add a couple things to it!


So Sara and I have gone to LA on Spring Break for the past 3 years! We had no plans to do a summer trip but when Will and Kate come to America you bet we are going to be there! We were lucky enough to convince Stacey to join us this time. Hopefully, we haven't scared her away from future trips!

It has become a tradition that the first night we get into town we go eat at The Disney Soda Shop and Restaurant to see our good friend James. He has been our waiter all 3 years that we have gone and is always entertaining. So, of course, Stacey HAD to meet James. When we got there we were devastated to learn that he was not working that night. After shedding a few silent tears, we decided to go ahead and eat anyways. Our waiter was a very sweet girl but it wasn't the same! We missed you James!



Now on to Saturday and the Red Carpet at the Belasco! Sara was not exaggerating in the least about how long we were there. We got there at about 10:00am and left about 8:00 that night. It was a long day but worth every second! Even the second degree sunburn on the back of my neck has not ruined the experience for me. However, I will never forget my neck again when putting on sunscreen! Not only did we get to see Will, Kate, and tons of other celebrities, we made some awesome new friends! Stacey seemed to be a magnet for the paparazzi as she was interviewed many times throughout the day. All 3 of us were interviewed by Daybreak which is the UK's version of the Today Show.


There were so many celebrities we saw that it would take forever to name them all. However, there is one huge celebrity that Sara forgot to mention. He was pretty much the main event!


DEREK HOUGH!!!


Ok so Derek Hough is not the biggest celebrity in the world! If you don't watch Dancing with the Stars you probably don't know who he is! It might have been the sun causing us to be a bit loopy but we found it absolutely hilarious that he was included in the list of "major" celebrities that would be there!


On Sunday, the last day of our trip, we made our final stop on our Will and Kate sight seeing tour. We were able to see them drive by and wave as they went in to the Inner City Arts school on Skid Row. The school is for homeless children. On our way back to the car we saw some homeless people and it really made me grateful for what I have. There are things that we don't even realize how lucky we are to have them.


Even though our trip was short it was a blast! Thank you Will and Kate for taking the time to come visit the US. You are even more handsome and beautiful in person! Please come back soon!
