| Good morning Pasadena! |
 |

 |
| First stop is the Warner Brother's studio tour |
 |
| Posing with Daffy Duck.... |
 |
| And with Bugs Bunny... |
 |
| Fake streetscape used in countless TV shows and movies... |
 |
| Dark, superhero back alley territory... spiderman hung upsidedown here in the pouring rain.... |
 |
| Checking out the fake brick... |

 |
| Superhero spotted.... |
 |
| The iconic Warner Bros. watertower... |
 |
| Batman and Harry Potter memorabilia inside... |
 |
| A complete set of Batman cowls from all the Batman movies ... they sure look uncomfortable! |
 |
| Harry Potter ... how can this boy be from Slytherin? And his sister too... |
 |
| Ahhhhhhh!!!! |
 |
| Harry Potter clothing |
 |
| This is the vehicle we were taken around the studio on... in front of trompe l'oeil murals that mimic 3-D perspective |
 |
| Oldest streetscape on the lot ... |
 |
| Note the subway entrance to nowhere..... |
 |
| In countless movies and TV shows.... including Batman - Commissioner Gordon's office! |
 |
| We were taken into Soundstage 25 (no photos inside allowed) - home of iconic scenes from Casablanca and countless classics... currently the home of The Big Bang Theory which the kids were thrilled to see.... |
 |
| There are 30 sound stages on the lot, all identically coloured to avoid any spats among the movie star set - this is one 'street' of them |
 |
| Sets from the most popular show in TV history ... Friends.... not a show seen by our family but we couldn't turn down the opportunity to try out the famous couch |
 |
| First time all Batman movie batmobiles assembled in one place for viewing... not to mention a batcycle, batboat or two! |
 |
| The Scooby Doo mystery machine!!! |
 |
| Studio lot entrance |
 |
| Chicago in California - remember E.R.? |
 |
| Post-tour gelato - 'Mintalist' and 'Batanama' flavours... |
 |
| Driving by is as much of Hollywood Boulevard as we could stomach!! Grauman's Chinese Theatre |
 |
| Superman and Spiderman conferring... |
 |
| Oh, and we even saw Michael... |
 |
| The film certain individuals are dying to see..... |
 |
| We missing photographing the iconic HOLLYWOOD sign but we did spot a lone 'H' in Glendale! |
 |
| Glendale Whole Foods for some sushi lunch |
 |
| Certain travellers wanted to check out the selection at the local Toys R Us.... |
 |
| And of course the Lego store.... |
 |
| Been saving all summer for this.... |
 |
| Ta Da! |
 |
| Post-build swim - that's two of us in the pool! |
 |
| Can't get enough of the stupendous palms |
 |
| Managed a drive-by of the spectacular Walt Disney Concert Hall in downtown Los Angeles.... |
 |
| And finally,... an all-American dinner.... |
