Last Sun, we went to collect our rented car (white Chevolet 2008) at Avis... at first monkey wanted to go collect with our travel partner aka Darren but he last min cnmi so monkey came home and woke me up to go with him.... FIRST TIME I DRIVE HIS LITTLE WIFE ALONE!!!! cuz he needs to drive the rented car back ma... so happy... haha... then after bringing his little wife back, we go out and test drive the rented car... new car is good! then we went to fetch his frd Darren and he got the car from us... why we gave him the car though i m the one who paid first cuz of his last min backup? cuz he needs to put his child seat ma.... so we sort of bao ka liao and still send to his door!

The following pics are taken for Day 1...

We started our trip as early as dawn....

No, thats not me. I didn't went for plastic surgery. Its Darren's wife and daughter (Xinwei and Qian Qian). The rented car is actually very BIG but hor... becomes abit squeezy after she planted in the child seat and STUFFED IN ALOT OF PILLOWS AND SOFT TOYS!!! pengz...

we had our bf in the car by compliments of them cuz they bought us Mac SME... my fav!!!! yeah!! Thanks ar!!! so we saved alot of time for break...

On the way.. we met a super sand storm... the view in front becomes blur.... the pic below is taken at my side window... lucky we were fine... haha


Then we went reached our hotel (Days Inn)... its too early to check in.. so we went to shop awhile at the nearby Downtown Disney... its not disneyland yet though its just beside... cuz we just wanna spend some time shopping... gals.. haha





After checking in, we had a short break... drove all the way to their Chinatown for dinner.. the traffic on the way was scary... aiyoh... but we all arrived safely but with famished stomachs....

so we "attacked" a chinese restaurant called "Shi Wei Xian" and ordered a table full of food enuff to feed a village... haha..

really like the nice autentic chinese food!

Then we walked ard Chinatown but its kinda later (7pm only) and most of the shops are closed... we heard tat they are open during biz hours.. pengz... so we didn't managed to get any american ginseng.. haha..




Since they are closed so early... we head to Hollywood Drive.. the Wall of Fame!

Took many pics! Do check them out at my facebook!

Ended the tiring day at hotel.. slept late but excited for the nx days...
