Day Two: Hollywood

Hollywood Sign

Heidi lives in Hollywood, and works for Paramount. I drove up here from Huntington Beach first thing this morning to have breakfast and check in with her. MapQuest says it's 30 miles; my commute was 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Welcome to Los Angeles. =)

There's a super-cute little diner a few blocks from her place (good omelette), next to the "Hollywoodland" arch and across from the "Hollywoodland Realty." As you might expect, the Hollywood sign (see above) is pretty visible.

She's at work for the day, so I'm holed up in her apartment, finishing my column for the PSBJ on the 17th. After that I'm going to do a walking tour of the neighborhood and see if I can find a WiFi cafe.

This place is really quaint and beautiful. Very Italian, very '30s and '40s. Heidi told me that there's an 80% chance of a Minnie Driver sighting. Fingers crossed...
