LA Visit: Day 2

[Omitted from the last entry: Our hostess has two very adorable Pomeranians that are both a year old. One is small and black and other is white, bigger, and loves to jump.]

This morning we were woken up by the bigger Pomeranian jumping on us. We quickly ducked under the covers to avoid a morning lick. She came back several times to try to wake us up. We were too tired to do much except hide. :p

Had brunch at Toast. I had their French toast with coffee cake crumbles - cinnamon-y goodness. We ordered cupcakes to go - red velvet, chocolate and vanilla, and lemon. Also got a couple for our host to try. I think they're much better than Sprinkles cupcakes - less frosting. I don't like thick layers of frosting.

Met up with a family friend to walk along 3rd St Promenade. Mainly we were just reminiscing and catching up while eating gelato. Definitely want to come back to Santa Monica sometime for a relaxing vacation. Since it was getting pretty cold, we went back to her place for tea.

That evening we had dinner at World Cafe, a moderately priced restaurant that gives you a lot of food. Good food when you don't want anything too fancy or over-priced. After dinner, we played some more Wii and went to bed early for the morning drive the next day.
