Monday on the Coast..(does this sound pretentious!)

Well to kick off another new experience this year, Molly and I took off for LA this morning! A car service picked us up and whisked us to the airport, where we boarded a Delta flight to California. Our contact from the ad agency picked us up, and we went to a beautiful little restaurant for lunch. Jennifer and her team from Weiden/Kennedy had all flown in from Oregon, where they have been saturated in Hincka's for 2 weeks. They talked about how much they liked us and Molly's story, and it was so weird, cause they know us, but we don't know them. Anyway they are all really nice and Mol loves them, so that's awesome. We headed to Anonymous content after lunch for the fittings for tomorrow and Thursday. I had a chance to meet the girl who is playing the part of  "the young Kerry"  (of course that leaves me with the role of "the old Kerry"!) apparently this is a commercial we are doing!!!! So yep, we're in LA while Molly films a commercial! When I called Susan and told her we were both giggling at the words--so surreal! So Molly got dressed and undressed for about 3 hours, then we came back to the Hotel Oceana, Santa Monica. It is a beautiful, quaint boutique Hotel, with a courtyard pool and island-y decor. Molly and I hopped right in for a swim, then got changed and took a long walk down the Pacific roadway, looking at the sunset and pinching ourselves. We went to the Santa Monica Pier, and rode the Ferris Wheel and had Churros. Mol said they were better than Costco's!  Then we walked back to the Hotel(a MUCH LONGER WALK) and grabbed a couple of slices on the way from Joe's New York Pizza. We brought them back so Molly could catch some Monday Night Football.  There was a knock at the door and a gift basket was delivered from Anonymous saying they are looking forward to a great shoot tomorrow.!
 OH MY GOODNESS-WE'RE IN LA AND MOLLY IS SHOOTING A COMMERCIAL TOMORROW!
