Had a good night last night!!!

My wife and I had our first really good night in Southern California last night.

It started with dinner at Benihana, which was good. Julie especially loved it.

There wasn't much open in Anaheim. Once you get away from the resort area, Anaheim's BORING. We looked for some excitement... that meant LA.

We headed for Hollywood. We walked down Sunset Strip, and took in the sights. We saw some famous night clubs in (West) Hollywood, including Whisky-a-Go-Go, the Viper Room and the Rainbow Room. No, we didn't go into any of those places, but we did take photos. One thing I never realized is how winding and hilly Sunset Blvd. is... I don't think that ever translates in the movies and TV.

Then, we found Paramount Studios, a place I wanted to work when I was pitching all those Star Trek stories to the producers over the phone back in the mid to late 90's. More photos.

Then, we headed for Hollywood Blvd. and walked the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It goes on for miles. A lot of those names are people neither of us had ever heard of. We took many photos of people we knew. One collection I didn't get was the Star Trek corner, where all of the actors from the original series and Gene Roddenberry are all together - something I didn't realize. We may go back, and I definitely want pics of them if we do.

It was very late when we got in - something like 3:30am or so. I ended up blowing off the first two sessions I was scheduled for this morning - a DW/Contribute session and DW Killer Tips - two sessions I wanted to go to... but there was just no way.

Looking forward to tonight's event. Julie is going with me.

I have a lot more to blog about yesterday... as well as pics from the keynote and last night's adventure. I will do that throughout the day today.
