"Boats and hoes.. it's a Catalina wine mixer. POW POW"
We had a Southwest sub-area and West sub-area team meeting in Los Angeles. We all went out a day early to spend the day at Catalina Island (about 20 miles off the shore of Long Beach, CA). We ate lunch on the patio at Armstrong's Seafood where I had scallops and a pina colada- YUM! Then half of the group went to the beach while the other half of us went on a glass bottom boat ride and then rented a golf cart to tour the island- we went to the Wrigley Memorial (the gum guy, ha!), the Botanical Gardens, the casino and to have a drink on the patio off the water.
That evening when we returned from Catalina Island, we went to STK in West Hollywood. This restaurant competes with Prime 112 in Miami... both amazing! We barely missed Dr. Dre, but Chad Ochocinco was eating there a few tables away. Go Bengals!
The next two days, we had our team meetings in the Ernst & Young Los Angeles office. We went to Yardhouse at LA Live for happy hour and then dinner at El Cholo. The next day after morning meetings at the office, I headed to the airport to go back home (saw Dr. McSteamy from Grey's Anatomy at LAX).
