Day Eleven, Feb. 21, 2012..
Star Homes Grand Tour.. with Starline Tours..
The tour promises or entices with offering the view of ver 40 Stars' Homes, including the homes of Tom Cruise, David Beckham, Jennifer Lopez.. and many more. But I hardly saw anything! Maybe the chimney of one house, the gate of another and the gardner of yet another. However, it still was fun going through the Beverly Hills, Sunset Strip and some of LA's exclusive residential neighborhoods, in an open-air bus, on a beautiful February afternoon.

Here are some random shots from the tour..
