After Freg Segal, we went over to The Grove to meet Laura, Chris & Cooper who were staying in Santa Monica and heading out to explore LA. We had intentions of joining them in Hollywood, but Olivia was too excited about her Hello Kitty watercolors and wanted to go home to paint immediately. We missed Lucas so were happy to go home and see him.

After Lucas' Dol, we stayed in LA for a couple days. Highlights:
November 28th, 2009
Chosun Galbee, Los Angeles, CA
On Saturday, November 28th, we celebrated Lucas' Dol (Korean traditional 1st birthday celebration) with family and friends at Chosun Galbee, in Los Angeles. Lucas' was a trouper wearing his Hanbok (Korean outfit). At almost 3, Olivia is just now fitting into her Hanbok. Both of them were super cute. Thanks to everyone who shared this special occasion with us.
Mom, Dad, Jen, Grace, Olivia, Lucas and I all flew to LAX together on Wednesday, November 25th to spend Thanksgiving with Grace's parents and Charles' family. Flying Virgin out of the International terminal makes a big difference. The short flight was nice and uneventful.

We left for LA early on Wednesday. After an important stop at Peets for coffee, we hit the road. We all drove down there over the holidays, but this was the first long car ride since Lucas was an infant and also since Olivia learned to love running around. For this trip, we decided to break the seal on the rear-seat video. To date, we've been telling Olivia it was broken every time she asked what it was. I had bought and tested various cables to hook up the iPod and iPhone for audio and video, but realized that O could watch her stuff while we listened to our own music. Therefore, we made another important stop at Walmart in Gilroy to get the necessary cable. Walmart is amazing.
We made one other stop for lunch and got down to LA around 3pm. We stopped by Ann and Jeremy's house to drop off some baby clothes for Ann and visit for a bit. It was also nice to see Murphy, though we missed Jeremy. After a quick stop and dinner in Manhattan Beach, we had to get to the airport to pick up Kate, who flew down to meet us. The trip was 12 hours, but we were in the car for only about 8. The kids were great the entire way.
The trip home was more direct. We got a fairly early start. Coincidentally, we happened to exit at the same McDonalds we hit on the way down. I already posted my attempt to watch the PGA Championship from the car. In reality, the internets in California's central valley are not fast enough to stream video (hd or otherwise). I should have just refreshed the leaderboard instead.
Another 8 hours and we were home. The kids did equally great on the way home. Great trip!
