Spring Break 2010

This is going to be a multi-part blog, since I have a few pictures I'd like to share.  We went to the Costa Mesa/Huntington Beach area, and then drove around to various locations.  The first place we went to was the Academy Awards (which we couldn't get within two blocks of), and ran into one sort of famous person.  Mandy and I were standing on the corner with a few other people, trying to see if we could get a glimpse of anyone famous.  We did see a lot of limos and fancy cars, people in tuxes, and suits going to and from the Kodak Theatre, and found ourselves a few feet from a man who had tons of makeup on, in a tux, and saying goodbye to his wife or girlfriend.  Mandy glanced down at his all important tag hanging around his neck, and it read "Wardrobe Assistant to B. Streisand."  Well, it doesn't take a genius to know who B. Streisand was, so I had Mandy kind of stand between him and I as I shot a picture of him.  Here's the shot:

We were watching t.v. at the hotel later that night, and guess what? B. Streisand's wardrobe assistant was on a post Oscar show talking about the various celebrities' dresses and hair.  By the way, when Ms Streisand appeared on the show to announce an Oscar, her "wardrobe and hair" didn't look all that great, but that's just me.
Here's a couple of other pictures and a video taken outside and approximately two blocks from all the fun.  How pitiful I am.

It's taking too long for the video to upload, so I canceled it.  Here's a couple of pics that don't really show you how much security was there.  They had the police out in force, and trying to get by them was not something Mandy and I wanted to try.
