Day 32 - Los Angeles

No dragon boating today so we had a much needed sleep in. About mid-morning we went for a drive to Beverly Hills. Walked down Rodeo Drive and looked at all the shops we can't afford to shop in lol!

Drove down Robertson Boulevard to check out The Ivy restaurant - apparently a good place for celebrity spotting. Didn't see anyone we knew so headed off. We were intending to go to the Universal City Walk but we stopped at Ross' to have a look (as one of the ladies at dragon boating had told me it was good) and by the time we were finished we had run out of time!  It was like a really cheap Big W selling designer clothes! Picked up a few bargains and by the time we were finished it was time to head back to get ready for dodgeball.

It was a knock out comp tonight so if you lost 2 games you were out. Unfortunately that happened pretty quickly so we had to cheer on the NSW and NT teams.  The NSW boys got all the way to the grand final but lost - at least they still got a silver medal.

We went over to the Athlete's Village to catch up with some of the WA team. The kids thought it was great! They had a free S'mores tent and a mechanical surfboard to ride on. Ian thought it was great - the LA Lakers cheerleaders were there for photos!



Had a drink and a chat with the boys and then headed back to our apartment. Big day tomorrow - Disneyland!!
