Half the people in Hollywood are dying to be discovered and the other half are afraid they will be.

This last Saturday Carmen, Evelyn, and I took a short trip over to the Hollywood area to sightsee. Carmen has been wanting to go since before she came, mainly cuz she wanted to see a celebrity, which I told her would be very unlikely. But I was wrong and we did! But you'll have to wait to later in the post to here about it :)

So first we went to Hollywood Blvd and walked the ENTIRE Hollywood Walk of Fame, which is 18 blocks long, which I did NOT know beforehand....holy cow is that a lot of stars! It was fun though. I liked seeing the hand/foot prints by the Grauman Chinese Theatre better though, which we should have done earlier in the day cuz it was hard to see them with all the people around! I got my favs though so all is well :) Carmen's goal for the day was to find Miley Cyrus' star and Justin Bieber's but she didn't...how sad! :) Although I still don't believe her that Justin Bieber has one.

Does anyone besides Sierra and Carmen notice anything funny about this pic? :) :) :)

My favorite actress ever!

These two (above and below) are for Daddy!

The day before we came or the day of, I don't really know, was the anniversary of Michael Jackson's death so there was LOTS of people around his star

Another fave!

And this one is for Momma! I got Jimmy Stewarts star too but didn't put it on here but she loves him too.

After walking the Walk of Fame we headed over to Rodeo drive, which we didn't stay long but long enough to say we've been there! Holy cow are those stores expensive!!! And we saw some expensive cars too.

We saw this Rolls Royce but didn't take this pic. I found it online but it's the same exact one, apparently it's always in this spot or something. It's so cool though!

Next we drove up to the Griffith Observatory, which was really cool. You could see all of L.A. and supposedly the Hollywood sign. Unfortunately we didn't get to see that cuz the parking was RIDICULOUS. All's we got to do was drive up to the observatory parking lot and then drive back down the hill. it was still pretty though so it wasn't completely a waste of time.

The last thing we did was go to the Universal Studio's City Walk to have dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. We were gonna have lunch there at the one on Hollywood Blvd but it was under construction so they gave us a discount ticket for the one at the City Walk so we went over there (just a couple miles away), walked around a bit, looked at the stores, and then ate dinner. We've both never been to a Hard Rock Cafe and both of us were just ok with it. It wasn't too amazing to me but not horrible.

Anywho, so after we were done eating, we walked outside and in the big plaza right outside it there was a HUGE group of people dancing, choreographed so they were all doing the same thing, which was pretty dang cool. But we were like, what the heck are they dancing for? Then after they were done some guy on the balcony of the Hard Rock started talking to them and we realized it was one of the Backstreet Boys!

He was on top of this balcony, but we took this before we ate.

They were doing a concert there that night and I guess this group did this dance for him/them or something. We don't really know though why they were dancing but do know we saw a Backstreet Boy and are 99% sure it was Howie. :) So there's our celebrity appearance! Unfortunately he sat down too quick for us to take a pic and before we realized who he was :(

So that's pretty much the whole of our adventure. It was a nice fun day, just us girls!

Carmen was really excited about this! This is Bella's truck from the Twilight movie Saga, which we're going to go see the third movie, Eclipse, on Friday!
