27 johnny depp

i took my people on a city trip to los angeles yesterday. always a hazzle. it went okay, but people are always so disappointed by LA. OF COURSE. LA IS DISAPPOINTING. i took them to olvera street, the oldest part of the city with the oldest house and a nice mexican feel but not everyone liked it. we want to see LA not Mexico is what i hear. by the annoying guy of course and others. DUH. Los Angeles IS Mexico. i mean. there are so many mexicans here. there are more mexicans here than cubans in miami. you see them everywhere.

the hollywood strip has changed a lot and is much nicer than before. there's a new building called the Kodac Center which is really nice. it's the place where the academy awards are held and where you can see the hollywood sign. the man chinese theatre was closed off because JOHNNY DEPP had just come to do his hand print in the concrete. now it was the girls in the bus who complained. one of them, a funny one, said: nico, you are a bad tour guide because you didn't arrive in time to see johnny depp. i want my money back. i'll file a complaint. haha.

we missed johnny depp. but there are so many lookalikes walking around on the strip these days. that wasn't the case before. so we did see johnny depp at least a lookalike.

other complaints: rodeo drive ('we don't see any stars shopping'), beverly hills ('all we see are fences and trees, where can we see the houses?'), freeways ('we paid money to wait in a longer traffic jam than in holland'), distance ('so we cannot walk to the centre of LA?'). DUH. even when you tell them twice how LA works they still don't get it.
