We stayed downtown since it's so close to Dodger Stadium. It was a great idea and we didn't hit any traffic. Unfortunately, the Dodgers lost. We had fun anyway! Shira and I tried to convince everyone to take a dip in the hot tub but to no avail. I guess it was probably a good idea since we had more sight seeing the next day.
Jesse took us to Olvera Street on Sunday. Our tour guide informed us that it was the first neighborhood in Los Angeles. It had the familiar Hispanic flare one sees so much of here in Southern California. We even got a chance to see some dancing. We weren't sure if it was Aztec or Mayan but either way it was fun to watch. Jesse and Vicky didn't miss the opportunity to buy some piping hot churros. I prefer mine while waiting in line to cross the border back into the U.S. from Tijuana.
We ended our day with Jesse's brother John. Their fantasy baseball team met up for some beers at a sports bar near John's house. John somehow convinced us to come back to his place for a game of Rock Band. We each took turns playing drums, bass and singing. We had so much fun that we didn't realize time had gotten away from us. Thanks to our amazing tour guide and responsible driver Jesse, we made it home safely.
We had an awesome weekend. I love our friends and I love Jesse's family! Thanks guys for making it so fun. I can't wait to do it again.
