As you may remember, I was away for a little while in Las Vegas. It is, of course, as lovely as the TV shows suggest.
But we did a day trip and made the 4.5 hour drive to LA – naturally, it was the one day of the year it was raining – but we took in a few of the sights. After the jump, a few pictures from Hollywoodland for your enjoyment, including the Chinese Theater and the Walk of Fame.
Santa Monica pier and beach, where Baywatch was filmed.
Beverly Hills park
Mann’s Chinese Theater
…which is on…
The Star Trek cast’s signatures in the concrete outside the theatre.
As well as a few more famous people’s handprints…
And lastly, the Hollywood Walk of Fame…

I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe.
