Jay Leno and John Stamos!

SO Friday morning we woke up at 5:30 and headed to Burbank, California to try and get tickets to the tonight show with Jay Leno. There was a line up for the tickets (they give out more than they have seats for) so then you have to stand in another line up all afternoon to get into the stage. We got tickets no problem, Then had about 7 hours until we would be let in. We decided that we would still be pretty safe to take off for a few hours and start standing in the line by noon (they let people in at 3;00), so we went to Warner Brothers studios and paid to go on the VIP studios tour. It was alot, but we got too see (AND WALK AROUND!) Stars Hollow (Luke's diner, Stars Hollow High School, Lauralae and Rory's house and Sookie's house. And the park in the middle of Stars Hollow with the Gazeebo. It was so cool. We got great pictures there. Then as we were scooting around the sound stages in out trolly, We drove right by John Stamos (Uncle Jesse from Full House...) and he waved at us. He was really the only celebrit that we saw that I had ever heard of, but that was a good one. We also saw a girl from Studio 60, but I hadn't even heard of tath show before. We visited the stage of the old Friends set and got our pictures taken on the Central Perk, friends COUCH!!!! It was awesome. Then we visited the WB museum and got to see lots of costumes and the purple door from Friends. Then we headed back to the line for Jay Leno, we were #7 and #8 in line, and the first 300 people get let in. We got really great seats, middle of the studio, 4 rows back, but the first elevated level so we could see awesome. Teri Hatcher, some other guy and Omarion were on the show. SO the line up wasn't that cool, but it was so fun just to bet there, and I love Jay Leno himself. He was hilarious. We were told that we would be on tv near the beginning, so of course when we got back to our hostel, (we have atv in our room-weird b/c we havent seen tv since december) we watched Jay Leno later on. They sure did scan the audioence, and we were able to find ourselves, but it went so fast, if you didnt know where to look, you would never see us. So that mad us mad. We had a blast all the same. Today, its Santa Monica Beach and Melrose! Tomorrow...home....

Hi Jo'

I bet Leno was a blast, it's on a little to late for me, but I'm glad you had a great time. John Stamos is now on E.R. and still looking pretty good. Studio 60 is a good show, Mathew Perry from Friends is on it. Enjoy the beach, we can't wait for you to get home. Travel safe and we will see you soon. Lots of love

I want to see the pictures from Stars Hollow! :) Can't wait to see you both when you get back to NS. I'll have a tub of ice cream waiting in the freezer... My fingers are crossed that the rest of your travels go as smoothly as ice cream.
