Hi everyone!
I am in Los Angeles. This is a different trip from my last one because I am not in a new country; I'm visiting a different part of our own country - the USA!
Los Angeles is a big city in the state of California. It is far away from Rock Hill, South Carolina! Can you find both of those states on a US map?
South Carolina is in the east. What ocean is it near?
California is in the west. What ocean is it near?
Nora asked if I saw the Pacific Ocean. I did! We went to Santa Monica Beach on a hot sunny day.
It was a lot like Myrtle Beach except the waves were bigger. Dr. Appelgren and Dr. Clarke held onto me so I wouldn't get wet.
Mrs. McGuire's class wanted to know if there were places to shop. We did see lots of stores. Here is a shopping street. The bush in the middle looked like an animal. Do you know what kind? The gardeners cut it into a very fancy shape!

Alex asked about palm trees. There were a lot of them - at the airport, in people's yards, along the highway, really everywhere. Palm trees grow well in hot places. Here is one that I saw near the beach.
Darren asked if I saw the Hollywood sign, but I did not. (Los Angeles is a very big city, and we didn't go to that part.)
Germale wanted to know if I met any famous people. I sure did - Peter Pan and Tinkerbelle! They were very nice, and let me have a picture taken with them. Los Angeles is where most of our TV shows and movies are made, so a lot of actors, actresses, singers, dancers and other entertainers live there.
.
I even met a celebrity who is flat like me! Here I am with Mrs. North and flat Alex Trebek.
Mrs. McGuire's class had some questions too. They asked if I was on TV. No, I did get to go to the TV studio, but I had to stay in the audience when they were filming the show.
Another question was, "Are there a lot of houses in Los Angeles?" The answer to that is "Yes!"
Almost 4 million people live there. It takes a LOT of houses to make homes for that many people.
When we were flying in the plane, I looked down and saw so many houses, it was too many to count.
Mrs. McGuire's class wanted to know if there were places to shop. We did see lots of stores. Here is a shopping street. The bush in the middle looked like an animal. Do you know what kind? The gardeners cut it into a very fancy shape!
That is all I will write for now. It is time to get into the suitcase and come home!
Your Friend,
Flat Stanley
