This was me today....

 

 

Driving down to the OC in Friday afternoon traffic was a very fast and harsh reminder of the amount of PATIENCE that is needed when traveling!  However, I doubt that any of the European cities even get close to rivaling the level of traffic I experienced in LA today.  It took me 3 hours to go the distance that usually takes 45 minutes (and there were NO accidents)!  ugh!  The only good thing about the 405 is ....wait a minute...there isn't anything! haha!  But I tried to face it like a champ...blasted the tunes and attempted to think happy thoughts!   I'M ON VACATION AND NOTHING CAN RAIN ON MY PARADE!
