the beautiful scenery of southern california. all though of the time, it was hazy and wasn't visible.


tina's mom wearing the sweatshirt that says, "i'm not listening." good laugh that was.


whole group except for mr.binh and christina. where are the skiers?!


the women. aren't they lovely? now look at that dirty snow in the background. yuck!


that's me with my second family.

so after we did the mountain thing we decided to drive to santa ana a.k.a. little saigon. guess who drove down the mountains? yeah. the wonderful tina. so the first thing we did when we got there.... went to a vietnamese mall.


yeah. asian persuasion baby. that store was cool. all the music, tina and i just wanted to bust a move or two.


yeah Ni bought cinnamon (?) and decided to put the ribbon in mr.binh's hair.

after that interesting trip... we left and went to go eat lobster dinner, vietnamese style.


this is us before dinner started. notice the writing in the background on the window... yeah, are we eating in a travel agency?


so sweet of a picture, tina's mom's smile at her husband. <3 they love each other. <3


mmm... lobster.


everyone was impressed with my open-mind to all the food. what can i say? i love food.


yeah. we were crazy by the end of this dinner.


definitely can't laugh with an orange in my mouth, neither can tina. =) what a nice dinner.

the next day we woke up and went to denny's.

mmm... coke in the morning, it's like my coffee.


chilling at denny's. poor vi... she's not in the pic cause she's taking it.


wow how this picture freaks me out.


the lovely women in denny's.


there's a star hiding behind that hand. my mouth is huge!


linh hiding behind the camera.

after denny's we took a trip to the mall.

what a sophisticated woman. very nice too.


the girls who grew up with each other. shopping and looking at thongs in different stores. i began to say, "too bad we aren't sexually active"


driving in the pimp mobile.

after driving for a while we ended up in a japanese restaurant just before meeting dr.wiegel's vietnamese twin.

there goes my love of food again.


japanese doll on the top of the booth.

so that night we drove through los angeles to camarillo, where christina's dad's parents live. the next day (sunday) we drove to santa barbara but we forgot batteries for the digi camera so there are no available pictures from there yet. santa barbara=beautiful and i swear i saw steven speilberg running along the boardwalk. i love the looks i got while riding in the basket of the bicycle. hehe. well the next day it was the girls, me, tina, and her mom. we left tina's dad at his parents to spend time with them and we drove off to beverly hills.


such a nice street sign. what a beautiful street. i adore dior and every other store on that street. <3


lily on rodeo drive. lovely.

so after beverly hills and dim sum in china town i was eager to find the star map of where they all live so we made the right decision to exit hollywood blvd.

doesn't she look like a star? drinking starbucks on hollywood blvd.


so tina was drinking her coffee and she looks down and look who is right below us... god's next door neighbor in heaven. the great walt disney.

so after our stop on hollywood blvd. and getting the star map and the mexican guy in the store where the map was telling me, "you are beautiful." with that nice, soft accent, we left and drove to find homes in the hills. boy did that not work out. but we got laughs. "larry king's house is right up this street! GO!" so we went back to camarillo and traveled to the outlet mall that was not a outlet at all. so we left.


some more pimpness in the pimp mobile.


laid back... such a pimp. maybe the pimpest of the pimp.

so that night we went shopping some more in a scary mall and ate dinner at olive garden in ventura right next to this big car mall. the next day we went to the getty, a museum dedicated to visual art on this hill, just outside of los angeles.


picture with louis.


my future bed.


mother and daughter at the getty.


freaky white elevator.

so after we looked at tons of beautiful art we ate at the super nice restaurant that was part of the museum.

tina and brendan frasier. woot. we were eating lunch where the stars eat.

after eating, we took a look at the gardens.



beautiful rose.


=)


nice.


even better.


us in the tran taking us back to the car from the museum.

after the museum we went to the farmers market in hollywood and then to look at star homes. mmm...


we were passing the great osbourne house and the gate was open. woot. good pic.


jack osbourne was in this car. what a good day for the stars. after passing the house for like the fifth time the police pulled up in front of the house... wonder what the trouble was.


playboy mansion anyone? yeah. behind that gate.


behind all those trees and the wall... thats where madonna's house is.

so that was our last day in los angeles/camarillo. here come pics from vegas... you ready? i doubt it.


damn she's sexy. we love that car. it became our second home.


driving into vegas.


my amazement. the lights, the people, buildings... everything..


the pyramid hotel.


this sign. whew. we saw a lot of em. sin city baby, when you go into any hotel room... all you see is sex. not very comforting.


vegas has everything, even it's own castle with a wizard!


bellagio fountains. if only you had your favorite man standing next to you.


to get myself in this position... boy did i look drunk.

so after our night out, the next day we went to red rock national park.

yeah this is lost creek. we are standing behind the waterfall. don't you like my hiking attire?... skirt and flip flops.


just... lol.

that night we got all dressed up to go to the venetian hotel to see a show.

freaken hot.


dancing in the car to ignition


the venetian... another place i was amazed at.

so on friday we drove in the car from vegas to torrance and then back to santa ana for our last dinner.

what a great picture of the two dads.


the women.


the girls at their last fun dinner.


the fish before it was eaten


before we started.


mmm... fish heads.... my favorite thing to eat. j/k!


it's done. boy do your hands smell after you eat that. soap is needed. after we went back to their house.... mrs.bing tried getting me drunk just for laughs.

what a lovely trip. i enjoyed every minute, from getting to know christina's childhood friends, to the drives in the car, to the hotel room by ourselves, to vegas, and everything in between. i loved it all. hope you all enjoy. sorry if you don't have dsl.
