Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles

Had two nights at Pasadena, Los Angeles which we used as a base to explore the Norton Simon Museum, Beverley Hills and all its wonderfully rich homes, Rodeo Drive where some shops require you to have an appointment to shop in and Mulholland Drive.
At night we drove to Hollywood and walked along the stars embedded in the sidewalk and visited Graumanns Chinese Theatre where many movie premiers are held. Outside the theatre we saw the foot and handprints of stars like Marilyn Monroe, Harrison Ford, Bing Crosby and more. The kids posed for photos with lookalike stars who you have to pay a tip to for the privilege.
Today we drove north to a small town called Tulare, north of Bakersfield. Tomorrow we are heading to Oakhurst to use as a base to explore Yosemite National Park. Still in the high 30 degrees here.
