Rodeo drive

Really, Really the temperature was a cold 80 degrees! Why the hat and ear flaps? Must be a BMW accessory BUT I didn't get one with my 850.











OK I don't get it. I just don't get it. I can park on what is widely accepted as being the most expensive retail street in the world for less than it costs me to park at a meter on the street in Ottawa. WTF????????

any body else notice the patio heaters in use. Walking by I noticed that it got warmer and looking up PATIO HEATERS in AUGUST????

Lots of nice cars on the streets. And the Ferrari did not get the girl. Bentleys also always had attractive babes as passengers.



This is the newest most expensive Rolls. probably over $500,000 tax in here.
A good friend of mine said and I quote "he obviously has a very small muffler and is compensating with the car and color"> I agree?

A very small muffler!?


The Tesla. I would have loved to have had time to go in and check out their electric cars.
From $109,000 Next time perhaps.

The San Diego Zoo is world known as being one of the very best zoos. It is gorgeous, very well laid out and lots of room for the animals in near natural habitat. Yes I agree one of the very best. TORONTO's is better!!!!!! go some day soon.





Yes still in the zoo.
