We left for our Newport trip on Friday around noon, flying from San Jose to LAX to get a better deal on a Mustang convertible. John Wayne airport is much closer to Newport Beach but we wanted that convertible. As we were approaching LAX Greg commented "watch Enterprise not have our convertible..." And they didn't!. But they promised they would bring it to us as soon as one came available. We decided to take our time getting down to Newport, and drove around Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Driving on Rodeo Drive, Claire announced she felt like such a tourist. I saw someone on a curb taking video pictures - I said "They're really touristy, they're taking pictures." I hadn't realized Claire was in the back seat snapping her own keepsake shots. So, here are some of Claire's touristy pictures (Thank you Claire!)
Rodeo Drive 
Hollywood Hills
Leo DiCaprio's Gate
Sunset Blvd
Guitar Center for Eric and Ryan; In n Out for everyone; Evan has Kevin Costner's autograph from the ProAm - plus one of us thinks he's cute.
After our 90 minute drive to go from LA to Newport Beach (about 50 miles in evening traffic), we caught up with our family: Wally and Judy; Julie, Kaitlyn and Brooklyn; Ross, Emily, and kids; Dane and Liz. We expected Marisha in the morning and Kelly on Tuesday. Taylor wasn't able to join us. We were sad and missed him. We arrived just in time for dinner. We had rotisserie chicken - very, very tasty -from Pavilions (a grocery chain).
