Entertainment in LA!

This past week was a blast as I had many "new experiences". On Wednesday I went with some friends to "Nic's" on Canon in Beverly Hills. It is a fancy Martini bar. Yes, the owner is Russian and quite friendly. He stopped by our booth to say a hello. Later he invited us to the "vodka Box". It is an ice box where hundreds of different vodka's are kept. It is like a wine cellar, but colder (and full of vodka). Before entering the ice box they have a closet full of leopard fur coats for the ladies and solid black coats for the gentlemen. We also got "fancy" fluffy hats to keep the head warm. It doesn't seem like we would need these hats, but they are essential! We tried a few different tastes of the vodka before exiting the "box".



Thursday was my first time at the Hollywood Bowl enjoying LA Philharmonic "Symphonie Fantastique". The witty conductor Bramwell Tovey explained the music and discussed the instruments before the segments. It was astounding to me. I was dancing in my head all night long!




I even ran into female bodybuilding icon, Cory Everson, with her husband. We chatted for a few moments before I invited her to our store opening! She is looking forward to it!



I have been trying to make Saturday "leisure day" (I know, coming from me that may sound funny - but I am doing pretty well with it.) During my leisure day I attended on of my favorite dance classes taught by Allan. He has a fun hip hop style that gets my heart rate going to excessive heights. According to my Polar Heart Rate Monitor, RS200, my rate can get up as high as 200 beats per minute. Now that is high! The best part is it doesn't really feel like I am going to die, until the end of class - but it sure is fun.

Thanks for kicking my booty in class Allan. When Allan isn't applying make-up to celebrities you can find him teaching at Equinox in West Hollywood and Santa Monica.


Sunday fun day! It was a typical gorgeous sunny southern Cali day, and we enjoyed it with the top down. We visited my Malibu girlfriend Michelle and her hubby Robert and their new twin babies, Reese and Brandy. (She is also the Insurance agent of my LeTip International networking group. The babies are precious with their big blue eyes and smiles. I got to hold Brandy for a little bit, as Reese fell asleep after so many giggles and smiles. Shortly after, we ventured on to a house party that had a majestic view of the mountains, marina, and rolling hills. The day was filled with inspirational views, wonderful friends, and warm sunshine. Aaaahhh, now I am ready for Monday!
