What a weekend!!

The weekend started early on Thursday with a Neil Diamond concert. The concert was at the Hollywood Bowl. They have a bus that comes and picks you up at the Lakewood Mall. We had such a great time. This is a picture of Debby and my mom on the bus before the concert.



I was a little nervous that I was not going to know any of his songs. I was right, I didn't know many but I really rocked out to Sweet Caroline. Eventhough I didn't know many songs, I thought that Neil Diamond put on a good show. Maybe it was because I was hanging out with 11 girls. : ) This is a picture of Julie and Jeana at the concert.

Then on Saturday.....I think it might have been one of the best nights of my life since I am not married and don't have kids. Jeana, Anthony and I went to the Dodger playoff game. We decided because it was going to be so crowded at the game to take the metro link and the free trolley bus the Dodgers offer. This is a picture of the trolley bus that picks you up at Union Station. Isn't it cute?



This is what it looked like inside. Full of Dodger fans.



We took the metrolink to Union Station. The metrolink is the LA version of the subway. We were a little nervous because it goes through some areas that are not the greatest but we figured that there were three of us so we would be fine. We were. We felt completely safe except for the some harmless characters dressed up. This is Anthony and his friend Charlie.




This was the best part of the night. If you didn't hear, the Dodgers swept the Cubs in the first round. It was soooo amazing being a part of it. Dodger stadium was absolutely rocking. The atmospere was unlike anything I have ever seen. There were 56,000 people singing the song We Love LA.


This is the Dodgers celebration after the game. They showed all of the celebration on the big screen so we could see all of the champagne being sprayed. Many of the Dodgers came back out after the celebration to address the crowd and say thanks.


And finally, this is Jeana and I doing our own celebration after the game. We had such an awesome time. I only hope that I can blog about the Dodgers two more times.....


GO DODGERS!!!!!!!!
