The Hollywood sign must be one of the most fun things to see for first time visitors in LA, like myself. It’s the first thing we went to see when we got there, and seeing it seriously gave me butterflies in my stomach. 

I thought I’d share a little secret tip with those of you who are lucky enough to be visiting LA as well. I read on Elise’s blog that if you type the address Deronda Drive into your GPS, and drive all the way to the end, you’ll be as close as you can bee to the Hollywood sign. The official viewing points are much farther down, so this is a must! And here’s an additional tips for you. At the end of the road you just meet a big gate where it looks like you can’t go any farther. Well, you can! Park your car a little farther down the road, then walk up to the gate. On the left side there’s a little door, which can be hard to spot, where you’re actually allowed to go. Go through the door and up the hill, and there you have a huge space right beneath the Hollywood sign all to yourself, because most tourists don’t know about this. We saw tons of tourists on our way up taking pictures from the road, and there we were, with the best view all to ourselves.

Ah, I miss LA already.. See you from San Francisco babes♥
