Me, Nadege and Pat in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles |
After a one day hiatus, I return to our trip to Los Angeles. Pat and I were going to meet Nadege, a follower of my blog. Nadege occasionally leaves comments on my blog. Earlier we had met with Tony, another follower of this blog who lives in Los Angeles.

Pat and Nadege in Little Tokyo store - good thing I had to take a plane back to Philly or else I would have bought something I didn't need in this wonderful store |
Pat and I were very much looking forward to meeting Nadege. She always is so kind and generous with her comments on my blog.
Originally we were to meet at The Grove, the chi chi "farmer's market" in West Hollywood. But Pat and I went early to make sure we could find The Grove on the previous day and of course, we were enchanted by The Grove. Nadege suggested that we meet in Little Tokyo, downtown Los Angeles, the next day.
Well folks, again I was not disappointed with meeting in person someone who followed my blog. Nadege is an absolutely delightful person. What is it with bloggers and people who follow blogs? Everyone I've met so far has been so nice, and kind and generous.
I'm not going to divulge any more information about Nadege to protect her privacy but I will say that the time we spent with her was enchanting. I know that this is the second time I'm using the word "enchanting" in this blog but there is no other word to describe Nadege or our time with her.
Well, my home health care worker is due to arrive soon and I have to be in my bed with my leg elevated to take some of the swelling down, which happens when I sit at this computer composing theses "enchanting" blog posts.
By the way, I had some extra photos that have nothing to do with this post that I want to include just to give you all an idea of our continuing wonderful stay in Los Angeles.

Pat talking to a a fellow guest in the dining room of the bed and breakfast where we were staying - all the fellow guests were so nice - we will be back next year! |
Pat did all the driving while we were in Los Angeles. He had been to Little Tokyo before so he knew where we were going. If we got lost, I had my iPhone with its GPS, which came in very handy. Thank you Pat for driving!
Pat is an experienced city driver because of all the years he's been driving his cars in Toronto. You think L.A. traffic is bad, you should go to Toronto. Now that's city traffic, a slow lava flow. Pat had no problem with L.A. traffic.

Pat in front of The Viper Room. Yep, the same Johnny Depp owned night club where River Phoenix died on the sidewalk outside from a drug overdose. So sad. |
Next year when we return to West Hollywood we're going to go into the Viper Room. I can just imagine what the cover will be. I was watching the Lisa Kudrow TV series "The Comeback" last night and she had a segment on the Viper Room. Looked pretty cool. Pat and I want to experience that.

Alright folks, sorry about this disjointed blog posting but I do like to get in as many photos of our L.A. trip as possible. Now I really do have to get ready for my home health care worker. Only one more visit (Thursday) after today.
