We skipped our 2012 vacation...

SeaWorld impressions I

Mum cuddling with mini-sharks...

Behind-The-Scenes-Tour really was worth it... got a shot of the not-yet-named dolphin baby...

Shark attaaaack...

Beluga interaction... watching that is... we - on safe grounds... ;-P

Whale watching... upside-down...

On the road to San Diego...

The must-see tourist spot in Long Beach... QUEEN MARY...

Huge Denise & tiny old tree... or something like that...

The dull skies led to some great pictures...

Endless streets ahead...

And the Emmy goes to...

Waiting in line to get searched by LAPD...

They kindly hung up backgrounds for us "little people" to take pictures...

That was actually our view... yeah... THAT BIG... ;-)

Picture proof after the show ended...

This Emmy day was really interesting... in retrospective I'd say... let this be a once-in-a-lifetime experience... chances of *running into* a celeb are better when walking the streets of LA I guess... ;-)

Malibu...

Hunter - the car - posing in front of some rocks in Malibu Creek Park...
note to NCIS:LA-watching readers: we named the car Hunter b/c of the darkgreen that is driven by hunters mostly in Germany...



Passing the 2,977 flags honoring the heroes of 9/11 at Pepperdine University was impressive...



Getting some Malibu intel at the Anderson house... really interesting...



Yummy burger on the patio at Malibu Inn...



Two happy ladies on Malibu Pier...

Moulin Rouge + Fireworks at Hollywood Bowl

The Moulin Rouge dancers were amazing... a big shout-out to my French friends who read this - je vous aime, mon amis !!

Picking up the Emmy tix...
