Hollywood and Santa Monica

So we had to go to Santa Monica to get the kids australian passports, …and we plan to have the day spent there to take advantage of being in “hollywood” and Santa Monica Pier etc.., here are some photos of the day out.

Santa Monica Pier Aquarium

(The reason we take so many photos of the actual aquariums and signs etc.., is because this is also part of our science for this month (learning oceanography), and we can look back and remember what we saw when we do the worksheet pages on the subject).

Hollywood sign and Car Museum

We went to this Car Museum a couple years ago when getting the kids Chilean passports, since it was right across the road (unfortunately we didn’t realize we were in the middle of Hollywood at that time).

And they had the Batmobile from Batman Forever, and the Time travel car from Back to the Future movies So this time I really wanted Alex and Eric to see it, but.. they weren’t there anymore. Anyhow.. the first car you see is the car from one of the James Bond movies. And there was so much fun to be had anyways. There was a portion of the musum dedicated to Hotwheel cars and as we passed it (we were going around) Diego said “when are we going to MY place”.

  1. Those are some coool cars and the kids look like they are having fun

  2. Australian passports huh, is that a hint?

  3. Hmm anonymous, whoever you are…? Since visiting Australia recently, we’d had it in our minds to visit again next year or so, so we went ahead and got them since it leaves it open to quick choice visits. And who knows what the future holds.

  4. that Aquarium looks amazing! I hope I can find a cool one to take Dakota to when he is older. I cant wait :-) Yay on your above comment…it would be lovely to see you again & finally meet your kids.

  5. I don’t know why it came out as anonymous?? It was me trying to figure out what is going on with you guys. Write me soon!
