Last night, Alex took me on a scooter ride to our favorite ice cream shop, Scoops, run by ice cream visionary Tai Kim. It was a really warm night and we rode through Hollywood into downtown LA. As we drove through Hollywood, we passed The Hollywood Palladium, a historic music venue. It just so happened to be the grand re-opening after a multi-million dollar renovation and Jay Z was performing. It was quite a scene.
We drove through Angelino Heights, a Historic Preservation zone, with a concentration of gorgeous Victorian style homes. They look like dolls houses. This one looked haunted.
We drove into downtown and admired the gorgeous Walt Disney Concert Hall, designed by Frank Gehry. I love this building.
And finally, after a two hour scooter tour of the city, we arrived at Scoops. Tai has unusual and very interesting flavors, which he changes daily. Tonight he was offering chocolate Butterfinger, lemon jasmine, almond thai ice tea and maple oreo, just to name a few. A delicious end to a wonderful night.

but what flavor did YOU get? we love scoops and don;t go nearly enough. it’s just a mile away, i think we’ll hit scoops this weekend! lovely scooter adventure!
Sounds like a fantastic night, and all of that within reach. Cities are amazing aren’t they. I could never live in one – although feel sometimes maybe I could – but love to visit them.
