So I am in LA for the Pangea Day 2008 event. The screening for those 100 films over 4 hours start in exactly 3 hours out in the Sony studios.
We arrived late on Wednesday night into LAX, customs and immgiration took over 2 hrs to clear although it only took 20 mins by car to get to the Ritz Carlton, Marina Del Ray.
Thursday started early, more from the jet lag than the desire to walk Venice beach at 9am.
Had a fabulous breakfast at the Figtree cafe then people-watched, shopped and cruised the infamous boardwalk for any exciting sites.
Got interviewed by Ashley Page's Mum (yup!) who was promoting her daughter's swimwear line with the help of TLC TV. Bought a few classic rock t-shirts, scored a beautiful Christie's fedora and bought a CD hip hop demo off a struggling artist.
Had a lovely evening by the Sheraton pool at the Pangea Day cocktail party and rubbed shoulders with some aspiring film makers.
Yesterday, I went to Urth cafe in Santa Monica with Chance and Marques. Then went shopping at Anonymous before heading back to crash out. Was so knackered from the time difference.
The weather in California at the moment is rather cold and I am regrettably unprepared as I assumed it was going to be beach weather.
Tomorrow night, we are going to Deep to watch Frankie Knuckles.
There always seems like there is never enough time to do all you want to in Hollywood.
