We will be going home in 2 days time.  I had to start packing our stuff. Wouldn't know whether all the stuff that we bought will fit into our bags (byk giler barang.. haha). Well that's why I need to start packing today, so that can decide whether we need to buy an extra bag. Packed half of our stuff. Stress fikir macam mana nak masukkan semua barang nie, so I decided to take a break and go out to buy some chocolates to bring back home. Off we go to Ralphs and bought some hersheys  , reese, cadbury and not forgetting twinkies for baba.. We had instant Brahims again for dinner.. Rasa muak la pulak makan Brahims 3 days in a row..
Thursday 17/1/08
It is our 2nd last day here in LA, and baba rushed off early morning over to his client's place so that he could finish up his work and leave early. Since we missed Universal City Walk on Saturday due to shopping fever, we decided today was going to be the day that we head out there. Baba got back to the hotel around 2pm, and immediately drove out to Universal City 
Once we got there we were greeted by these amazing stores with lots and lots of interesting deco to liven up the place  . Universal studios is just next door, but we decided to give it a miss since Qistinna is too young to appreciate it anyway. We made a pact that we will be back to go for the studios tour.
The shops that are really interesting and fascinating like we never seen before  . There was the Harley Davidson, LA Raiders store and even Bubba Gump shrimp restaurant which was conceptualised by the Forrest Gump movie. Mind you that the restaurant actually sells shrimp and even has a replica of Forrest Gump's shoes and the bench from the movie scene. "I'm Forrest, Forrest Gump, people call me Forrest Gump"....
We toured around the Citywalk and took some pictures there. No shopping was done apart from the Hard Rock Cafe t-shirt which is a must buy for every city that we visited. After touring for about 1 1/2 hours, we head back to our hotel to begin packing, which I admit seems like a mountain to climb now. Owh, we had dinner at I-Hop.. Bosan makan Brahims.. 
Friday 18/1/08
The day finally dawned on us that we have to head back to London...it was kind of sad leaving Los Angeles as it has been our home for the last 2 weeks...would you believe it??..  We came, we saw and we shopped!!... This trip will always be a memorable one, as there wasn't a single day that I didn't enjoy our stay here... In fact I woke up every single morning embracing the ray of sunshine that god has to offer on this beautiful earth..To think that we have to get back to London where dark clouds reign the sky didn't exactly help liven up our moods... patutla mat salleh kat London moody jer, and all of the people in LA ceria jer...tgk weather pun dah tahu.. Anyway after saying our goodbye to our hotel room.. (well we didn't exactly know anyone in LA, i guess there was only 1 object that we could say goodbye to was our hotel room) we head off to LAX... 
Finally after frantically trying to check in our bags, we waited our around the airport lobby before heading out to the departure lounge. Wouldn't you know it we had another celebrity sighting and it was Michael Clark Duncan (the big guy from the movie The Green Mile) and Terry Crews (the big guy as well from the movie White Chicks). To refresh your mind here's the video clip from White Chicks movie --> Click here We were initially quite hesitant to take a picture with them, but we thought, bukan tiap2 hari jumpa Hollywood actors, kena amek gambo nie...So I pun selamba pegi ke Terry Crews and took a picture with him. So did Baba, and boy were we delighted  . Next up was Michael Clark Duncan, but we were too late as he had already moved upstairs to the departure lounge... ah dang!!....  Should have made our move earlier, then it will be another collection of famous people that I have taken a picture with... This is Baba's second picture with a celebrity, the first being with Ronan Keating, the main singer from Boyzone and he sang the theme for the movie Notting Hill. After clearing the security check point (which took ages by the way as we had 2 laptops that needed to be screened as well as the prem) we headed out to the departure lounge. Then we saw another celebrity and this time it was Turk from the sitcom Scrubs.. I didn't see him but it was baba who spotted him. From that point on as we waited for our plane, semua pak itam pakai topi jer kitaorang usha kut2 celebrity.. 
We arrived home safely in Gatwick airport after a gruelling 13 hour journey..pergh macam balik M'sia.  The 3 of us were pretty much jet lag as we slept the whole of Saturday and was wide awake till Sunday morning again as our body clock was still in LA time. I guess this is the end of a beautiful odyssey and am glad to have shared our experiences with all of you. I hope that you have enjoyed reading and viewing our photoblog as much as we enjoyed taking the pictures and uploading it for all of you to view. 
THE END OF A BEAUTIFUL AND MEMORABLE JOURNEY
