Finally There (LA: Part 2)

With or plane tickets and show tickets in hand, my sister and I boarded our flight to Los Angeles, CA in attempts to accomplish my most important life long goal: to be in the audience for The Price Is Right.

After a total of ten hours of traveling, we finally made it to my sister's old roommate's, Mel, apartment in LA. The three of us celebrated our arrival with a bottle wine followed by a bottle of champagne. After our first night, my friends Caitlin and Charlie arrived at Mel's and we spent the day sight seeing. We went shopping at various specialized stores, one of the more imporant ones being Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. There we saw all sorts of memorablia from Kevin Smith's movies, like the Mooby computer, Randal and Elias's Clerks 2 shirts, and the Askweniverse "bible."

After a long day of sight seeing, we headed back Mel's to participate in some much needed relaxation by watching the entire first season of Lost (which, thanks to Mel, I am now thouroughly addicited to). During the next few days we continued this trend, watching Lost and seeing the sights. Our next memorable visit was to the Santa Monica Pier, were myself, Caitlin and Charlie participated in frolicking along the sand and soaking up as much sun as we possibly could.

We spent the majority of our stay in LA simply killing time, waiting for the main event...The Price Is Right.

Soon the day came, January 8th was finally upon us and we were going to be in the audience for The Price Is Right!

......or so we thought.
