April 11, 200718 yr hey guye esther posted the whole report on AFU here is it Ok a short report about the whole week. There's just to much to mention, I was about to make a full one, but that's just gonna be thousand pages full, with info you wouldn't care less about.. lol Ok here it goes.. Thursday: The trip started! Was a bit freaking out about flying but hey, we know it's worth it, we will go to Ana! After the check in at the airport I drank something with my family and then I went to the security check ups. They were so slow I got to late at the gate. Missed my damn flight. Needed to go to some desk to report it and they could try and get me on the next flight. It was booked, but I was on a waiting list. Had to wait till the last seconds if I was able to go on that flight. And thank god I could! So no worries, I would be on time for the Fashion Show, just needed to change and all a lil bit quicker. Ha, that's what I thought but it turned to a whole other moment. As I was in Berlin, I lost my suitcase. Very cool, not. So needed to report that also and after that I could go to my hotel. Already missed the Fashion Show, so only the Afterparty would be an option. But as I didn't had my clothes with me I called Tina to say I lost it all.. She told me there were a lot of people wearing casual stuff, so I freshened up and got to the A-hotel. I had a blast that night, it was so cool to party with all other friends and fans! Really nice. Even had a quick hello with Ana as she walked around the party room. In it all, the stressing day ended really good! Friday: Going to explore Berlin with the Dutchies. We just sat down somewhere and got a drink, just talked and were enjoying the sun. Sylvia and Corné had to leave at some time, and as we got back to the hotel to get their stuff, my suitcase arrived! I was so happy! We said goodbye to Sylvia and Corné, and Amber, Linda and me went exploring Berlin a little. Even checked Ana's hotel but she already left. Saturday: Had to get up really early to go to the airport. And a long flight lay ahead of us. As we arrived at LAX we had to take a taxi to the hotel. European time it was already bedtime, but in LA it was just the beginning of the afternoon.. Nice. We explored the surrounding of the hotel and settled down in our hotel early to get a good night rest. Sunday: At 2 pm we had an appointment with a guy who owns a cadillac. He picked us up at the hotel, and he showed us everything with stories with it. We saw many houses of celebs (and when I see the pics, I can't remember who's houses they were lol), so Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Hollywood, Venice Beach, Santa Monica, Walk of Fame, Rodeo drive. Even saw two parts where scenes of Pretty Woman were shot.. We went into the hotel where it was filmed, and I immediately recognized it, so cool, and we saw the building from the end scene. I even thought I saw Jennifer Lopez driving through Rodeo drive, but as there are so many look-a-likes, I'm still not sure if she was in the car. Monday: The suppose to be Ana meeting day. As we entered The Grove we already saw the fountain where we should meet. As we were there early, we just went looking around. And it's so nice. Got back to the fountain on time again and we just sat there and waiting... waiting.. waiting.. We were thinking, ah well I'm sure she won't be on time.. But after a half an hour Tina called her (or Shawn perhaps) to ask where she was. Turned out she mixed up the days. So we went to do some shopping to make the trip to The Grove usefull. We also ate at the Cheesecake Factory, which turned out to be the place Ana wanted to invite us to. The cheesecakes were nice, but damn, one bite and you're bloated (which happened to be with every American food though). That night we went to some restaurant nearby. Judy really wanted to go there so we did. When we were eating, Jessica Alba entered the restaurant. And like I said before, I got a small convo with her waiting at the restrooms. Thuesday: The real Ana meeting day! Same time, same place, different day. Ana was on time, as Tina spotted her entering the Cheesecake Factory. So we went over and introduced eachother. "Hey, it's Anastacia" Oh no really?! lol As she got to know we already ate there she said we could go to the Italian across the street, as she loves the food over there. She asks us how old we were.. If we had any siblings.. "I got an older sister and younger brother" I told her.. "So you're the middle?" "Yeah" "Me too!" When she heard I came from Holland she immediately called a Dutch friend of her and gave me her phone. Right.. So I talked a bit with the guy.. After that we ordered our meals and talked more. We talked about her friend's son, cutiepie. Which turned to the subject I work with kids. Talked more. And more. And more. But the most of the whole meeting I already put in this topic, so won't repeat myself with everything. Her friend told us she makes the best home made apple pie and that she's a great cook. When there are cleaners in her house, she's cleaning along with them to make sure everything is just like she wants to. After lunch we gave her the gifts. First of all the whole package of fan letters. Then I gave her my Denmark report, and told me she loves getting those reports as she isn't locking those moments in by herself. She was already watching it page by page and you could see she already enjoyed looking at it. She couldn't wait to read the whole story. Judy gave her gift, it was like a powder thingy with glitters, which Ana adored. And then I gave her mine. On the outside I had a http://www.packhuis.nl/b_245.jpg (don't know the English word) and she liked it. "How cute!" She opened the gift and she saw a keyring Buddha, which she immediately said she would put on her keys. Then the big package which she unwrapped and she also liked it very much. I bought her a Weeping Buddha, she knew what it was but didn't know the name, so she started to read the description. "What a great gift, isn't that a great gift?" The waiter came down and also loved it. "A weeping buddha! What a great gift." As I was doubting if she would like it, I jumped up and down from the inside as she loved it. She was feeling a bit guilty she didn't bring us something, but I said that her just being there was already enough. And her friend reacted "Euhm.. I got gum..?" rofl! So after that we went over to some place to make pictures.. We hugged goodbye and we left. We went to do some more shopping at The Grove and headed back to the hotel afterwards. That night we had dinner at Dolce, it was Ashton Kutcher's restaurant. Pretty dark inside but it was okay. Wednesday: Today we had to get up early to go to the Universal Studios. In the bus we had a hilarious female driver. You should have seen her or it's not funny lol. Before we entered the Universal Studios we went and have a look at the restaurants/shops part. I already spotted a nice Hard Rock Café shirt and a nice cap, which I bought afterwards. The theme park is pretty nice. But in mine opinion it seemed a bit small. Positive thing was that there were never huge waiting lines. And if you had to wait, you know you would walk constantly to the part you could go in somewhere. I really thought they organised that really well! On the Universal Tour we got to see many famous film sets. Saw Wisteria Lane from Desperate Housewives and some other nice things. They showed us how some effects in movies were made. So in it all, I had a nice day at the Universal Studios. Thursday: We got up and went shopping at the Beverly Center. Such a different mall compared to the Grove. It's all inside and less nice in my opinion. I bought some shoes (Allstars, way cheaper then in Holland) and that's about it. Couldn't find to much nice stuff. As it's mostly the expensive diva-ish brands like Versace, Gucci, D&G and so on, and I don't need to have that in my closet. I prefer H&M lmao As Judy and I were discussing to get a tattoo, we asked for a good one in our hotel as there were a lot of people working there having a tattoo (we also asked Ana, but she didn't wanna tell anything as she said our parents would kill her.. well then she doesn't know my parents, they would only kill me, and see, I'm still alive lmao) anyway.. When we entered a taxi we said we needed to go to the tattooshop which was recommended. As the guy was filled with tattoo's also he told us we should go to another one. He had been to both and the one he recommended was better. So we went there and got our tattoo's. That night we went to The Ivy. Jennifer Aniston was spotted there regularly, so why not give it a shot. Well she wasn't there but we did have a great time. The waiter was nice, the restaurant looked sooooo pretty, and the food was delicious! On our way back to the hotel we got a taxi again, and guess what. Out of a thousand taxi drivers in LA, we got the same who drove us to the tattoo shop! "So how's the tattoo?" And I showed him mine. Really a nice guy. Friday: The helicopter flight! And god, I'll never be on one ever again. I got so nausea, not so nice. Didn't throw up though, thank god! But I didn't like the feeling of being in a helicopter. After that we went to a nail studio Ana recommended us. Contempo. When we stepped inside it was pretty weird looking as we expected something which looked differently then this one. The people were nice though, and it seemed one whole big Asian family is running it. When Judy and I waited outside there was this woman coming out of the nail studio, I looked at her, she looked back, and I thought she just was a person who also went there. Until Judy told me, wasn't that Holly Marie Combs?! Euhm whaaaaaaat? Nooooo! But looking at the way she walked, it really was her. So as it turned out pretty normal, we might have seen more celebs! lol Who knows! At night we had a long flight back and I landed in Holland again on Sunday morning with a week to always remember. And okaaaaay, it turned out pretty long already. Excusez moi! lol Be glad you don't have to read a more detailed one haha I think I'll put some pics up tomorrow!
