Scooter Life, A Day in LA

August 24, 2014

Today my gem of a friend Lisa, who just so happens to be living to blogger dream in LA, decided to explore LA a bit further today…

You can keep up with her here! 


She scoots around LA
Ventures to Eggslut on occasion
& is one of the most positive girls I've come across in a while

We started the day off by scooting to Hillsong, a Christian church that originated in Australia and has just recently taken root in LA.
The church holds Sunday Service in the Historic Belasco Theater in DTLA
(This is a picture of the Theater's patio from there website)


I am pretty simple when it comes to worshiping Jesus. I like to feel connected to the people I am worshipping with and enjoy getting quiet and just listening to God speak through his word.
Personally, I don't like feeling so entertained when I am at church. 
So for me the lights, cheering, and concert like atmosphere was a bit overwhelming.
However, everyone is designed differently, and for the people of Hillsong, this church is there home, which is beautiful in itself.

All in all I was grateful to be there, and dance around like a fool for God,
because 
Love Always Wins,

has there ever been a greater reason to dance?

Another highlight of the day was scooting around LA
No picture, keyboard, screen, or iphone can ever compare to the feeling of being outside, in a crowded city, full of adventure, with wind flying through your hair!
Ugh I just absolutely love the Scooter Life!



 If you have never been to Grand Central Market in Downtown LA, well you're missing out. It is such a gem. It reminded me of Europe the way the markets are set up. We sipped on iced coffee from the one and only Augie's Coffee. Augie's is located in Redlands, CA where my family lives. So every I visit home I make it a point to get a tasty brew from this local gem. Supporting local business is easy when the business itself is so full of passion, creativity, and ya specially selected craft brewed coffees. 
I was pretty stoked when I saw this sign that I started telling people to try the coffee since we were all waiting in a wrap around line for Eggslut. Yep Eggslut. The foodie heaven for all things eggs. I was an Eggslut today and I am proud of it. Ha!

I ordered the Fairfax. I am definitely going back to try the Slut...




 A few pictures I snapped while we strolled through the Historic Bank District.
