Hollywood


Drove straight from LAX to see the HOLLYWOOD sign. On the way we saw oil wells which I didn't expect to see in CA. Drive through one of the neighborhoods with tall palm trees was nice too. Pretty much adjusted to the 3 hour time difference after good night's sleep at Lakshmi's cousin's place in Cerritos. On to San Diego...

Spectacular views of Mojave


The view prior to 30 minutes from touch down at LAX was spectacular. Along with sand, place was littered with pyramid like mountains.

Puffy Cotton Clouds at St. Louis


Puffy clouds welcomed us to STL. They were beautiful as a consolation to the not so great trip from LGA-STL. We almost missed this flight as I didn't realize that going from terminal C to Terminal D at LGA requires another Security check! Also it appears be the rush hour at LGA. We taxied for an hour moving in the queue waiting FOR our turn to take off. On top of that our seats were at the back row next to the toilet! Anyway, we are in the CDT time zone now. LAX flight is delayed by 35 minutes.







Waiting for the St. Louis flight


View from the Gate C9 waiting area. Plenty of time to charge the electronics.

RIC to LGA

Beautiful Day to start the trip.

I am excited about this trip (July 17th - August 27th) taking us to several new places that we haven't visited including Los Angeles, San Diego, Tokyo, Kaula Lumpur and finally India.
