Not sure how many of you
remember the (very) brief
glimpse we got of the
famous Hollywood sign?
Yes, yes, I do!!
But I do know it was after noon.
WHOA! That IS sleeping in!!
All I know is I saw four
or five Jawas running about.
And they even had pre-recorded
Jawa-speak!
Okay, yeah, that's pretty cool!
I like it!
that until this trip,
I'd always thought Chick-fil-A
was pronounced "Chick fill-ah".
Totally worth it.
Bonus points if you agree it was worth it.
(Or not. Bonus points either way)
Without getting too terribly esoteric, yes I do think it was worth it. Value is a very personal thing, so if you find it to have been worth it, then yes, it was. (Yes, I realize that makes absolutely zero sense, but since it's 11:45 on the eve before a night shift, I'm filing this under the I-Don't-Care File.)
"The Hollywood sign?
No, it's nowhere near here."
I had arranged to have one
last meal at Naples
in Downtown Disney,
with
@Steppesister .
It was a very nice one, I might add.
That only took us two days.
Again... totally worth it.
So, a dinner amongst bird poop tables is more worth it than getting to see one of the 7 Wonders of the post-modern world?
I sped off back to the Annabella,
and dropped off the car.
I quickly sent Liesa a PM
asking her to meet Kay
in the lobby, which she
was kind enough to do.
Yep! I was already there having spent the last bit of my day with my feet up in the gorgeous lounge with glass of red wine, some bar snacks, and a playoff game on the tube. It was bliss. Or was the blisters?
Hmm.... Okay, both.
Liesa had called ahead
and reserved a table for us,
which was very nice of her.
Had I known, I'd have asked for a poop free one.
Some kind of.... nuts,
or seeds, were falling
out of the trees.
No idea, really.
But it wasn't bird poop,
so I consider that a win.
I"m not sure what's worse: a concussion or a bird flu.
Can you guess which
one didn't mind having
her picture taken?
It's subtle... but maybe
you can figure it out.
Lemme know. Bonus points.
The cheesy smile is only a decoy to detract your attention away from the amazing (not) hair style I was sporting that day. But I DID find every last stiinkin' Easter Egg, so I did have that going for me.
Oh geez.
I do remember that Kay kept
making us laugh with her quips.
She asked me how much
I normally tip. (20%)
But every time the waiter
didn't do something quite right,
she would comment.
I think Liesa asked for a glass
of water with lemon.
He forgot the lemon.
"He's down to 10%!"
But he did bring pepper
or parmesan to the table.
"He's back up to 13%."
This whole thing cracked me up so bad. Love that kid!
I do remember that Liesa didn't.
Nope. The pasta was more than plenty!
I learned that they
tore down the Anabella.
So many fond memories.
Me too. Among other wonderful memories, that was one of the last places I spent with my Aunt. She was an inspiration to me in many ways. I loved that place.
She was kind enough
to buy us treats for
breakfast on the way.
I'm such a good friend that I threw in one with coconut in it.
I dropped off Liesa,
and helped her with her bags.
Thank you again for that!
I nodded to whatever she was
going on about
"You can't park here! You can't leave
a vehicle unattended!"
But, but, you didn't!!!
Mmm, LA air.
Ah well.
I guess I'll just have to go back, right?
April? I think Alison has a couple of really nice places for us to try!!!
See?
Doesn't it look Canadian?
(Tell me why. Bonus points.)
PMing the answer.
Bonus: Did you see them?
PM your guess.
Posting will result in deductions.
PM on the way!
Wow, that's very thoughtful. Nice work,
@Steppesister !
Thanks
@Captain_Oblivious !! It was fun! I'm not sure i have the video anymore, but it was actually pretty hilarious. Something like: "K, you love me. I love me. Have a wonderful day." Or something like that.
It wouldn't mean anything to me.
Although
@Steppesister would be interested.
Yes, I would. I don't know if we'll be back by there in April, but it'd be fun to take a peek.
