Conner Ladies Reunion: Day One

My mother and sister decided they just couldn’t live without me. (translation: two busy Colorado moms needed one night away near a beach and I happen to be near one).  With a mere 33 hours to accomplish the SaMo/SoCal experience, my skills as host would be challenged to the max.  Fortunately, Google Maps and I are best friends.  After plugging in some necessary sites (Marina del Rey, downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood Sign, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Malibu, and more), an itinerary was in place.  As tour guide, I couldn’t disappoint…and what kind of tour guide would I be without proper equipment?!

With itineraries in hand, an iTunes playlist queued up, and a hidden microphone amplifier ensemble under my driver seat (which would debut unexpectedly at just the right moment: “Goodmorning everyone! How are we all doing today? Welcome to California! My name is Amber and I’ll be your tour guide this weekend…up on your left you’ll notice…”), the weekend was sure to be a hit. Yes, we crammed in as much sightseeing (and cliché tourist poses) as we could. It was a blast!
