Happy Thanksgiving!



As you all know, Joe and Jessica love to travel.  We're notorious for it.  This year, for Thanksgivng, we traveled to Los Angeles.  Initially, we had planned to see Pee-wee Herman's live show in Hollywood; however the dates were changed and we were stuck with a non-refundable flight, hotel, and no entertainment.  It turns out that Pee-wee was on Conan on Thanksgiving AND Joe won tickets.  However, our flight didn't arrive in time!  It was not meant to be.  But, have no fear, we found ways to enjoy ourselves!


Our flight came on on Thanksgiving day.  We enjoyed a Thanksgiving crab feast at The Stinky Rose in Beverly Hills, topped off with a slice of pumpkin pie afterward.

On Friday, we toured the coast, visiting Malibu, Santa Monica, Venice Beach, and Long Beach via the Pacific Coast Highway.





On Saturday, we ventured into Hollywood for an adventure called Accomplice:  Hollywood.  This show is part scavenger hunt, part mystery dinner theater, part craziness!  The Hollywood show is produced by Neil Patrick Harris. The day before the show, we were walking on Venice Beach when Jessica received a call on her cell phone instructing her to arrive at 1:30 PM PST at the Hollywood & Highland Center [Ed. Note:  location not disclosed!].  We arrived at said location and began our search for missing Hollywood Star Nikki Desmond.  2 1/2 hours of fun, mystery, and adventure!  We very much recommend Accomplice and look forward to checking out the shows in NYC and the shows about to open in other cities.  At the end, we got to meet the writer as his sister was in our group!!

Here are some photos from our day in Hollywood:



We drove up into the Hollywood Hills in the morning.  Very scary roads, very beautiful homes.

The weekend of 12/12, we're heading up to Cleveland to meet with the priest, Fr. Grama and our reception site/caterer.  Pretty soon the date will be in stone.  Stay tuned for the announcement!!!
