Day 4 Adventures with the Lopez's

LA had to work today so we went to Venice beach while they were at work. I LOVE VENICE BEACH!!!!  So many people just to sit and watch people will keep you entertained for hours. We had lunch at a nice place on the boardwalk called the Sidewalk Cafe. Walked the pier and watched the street performers they were awesome very very talented group of young kids. They were dancers and did all these flips and stuff they got the crowd involved which was fun to watch. Don't remember what their name was but they were a black group that was performing. They asked for volunteers and got 3 ladies then they asked for more volunteers and then they said they wanted 2 rich white guys, then they asked for another volunteer but he had to be Asian with a camera around his neck and holding a map, then they got 3 kids to volunteer.  The leader repeated everyone that was there then he said they are finally politically correct it was so funny!!!  They got the youngest member of their group and he did a flip over all of them without the help of a trampoline or anything it was so neat. I tried to video tape it with my phone but it didn't turn out. I highly recommend everyone to go check them out.  I then went and watched the skaters at the skate park and they were really good I am horrible with names but there was professional skaters from the Dew Tour I know the older boys would have liked that.  They also have a graffiti wall where you can pay and graffiti whatever you want on it, Venice Beach is also the home to Muscle Beach they have an area where you can lift weights or do gymnastics or even box! The entrance is in cement and its of 2 dumb bells its pretty cool I highly recommend everyone to go check it out. Also on the buildings (houses) around Venice Beach almost everyone painted their homes this one house has Albert Einstein and a bunch of famous faces it was really neat!  I hated to leave Venice Beach.  Afterwards we went and drove around and just explored we went to Beverly Hills and was on Rodeo Dr. We saw Kim Kardashian she was driving wasn't able to get a picture and I also saw Carlos Santana he was outside our hotel going into the Guitar Center I guess they do alot of recordings and free concerts there. We didn't know who the guy was playing so we didn't go. We met LA, A and the kids at the hotel after they got off work and we had dinner at the Grove it was the best food ever! Everyone got something different to eat me and L went to a Brazilian food place OMG so yummy!!!!  Walked around some more I stayed the night at LA's I really missed that futon and was able to finally get some sleep. LA has a nice roof top deck and a view of the Hollywood sign.  She lives across the street from the boys school I find it so weird that the kids are not allowed to go out and play unless they are right there no way I could ever live in the city my kids are always outside
