SO YESTERDAY WE TOOK A DRIVE ON THE PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY TO MALIBU, THE VIEWS WERE ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS AND NOW I SEE WHY MOST FAMOUS PEOPLE DECIDE TO MAKE MALIBU THEIR HOME!
HAD TO DO THE TOURIST THING AND HAVE MY PICTURE TAKEN IN FRONT OF THE CITY SIGN.
WE STOPPED TO WALK ON THE BEACH SO WE COULD SAY THAT WE WALKED ON THE BEACH IN MALIBU. WE CAME ACROSS A REALLY NICE, REAL LIFE LOS ANGELES COUNTY LIFEGAURD AND SHE POSED FOR A PICTURE WITH HANNAH.
WE STOPPED AT A NICE RESTARAUNT TO EAT LUNCH IN MALIBU AND HANNAH THOUGHT SHE WAS FAMOUS SO SHE LEFT HER SUNGLASSES ON TO AVOID BEING SPOTTED BY THE PAPPARAZZI!
NEXT WAS A TREAT FOR ME, WE WENT TO CARSON, CA TO LOS ANGELES COUNTY FIRE STATION 127 WHICH WAS THE LOCATION THAT THE 1970'S TV SHOW EMERGENCY! WAS FILMED AT!
FOR THE SHOW IT WAS RENUMBERED STATION 51, BUT IT WAS REALLY 127. THE STATION TODAY LOOKS JUST LIKE IT DID ON THE SHOW WITH A FEW MINOR CHANGES AND UPDATES. WHEN WE GOT THERE THE ENGINE WAS OUT ON A RUN, (CAME BACK BEFORE WE LEFT) BUT THE QUINT WAS THERE PLUS 3 FIREFIGHTERS WHO WERE SUPER NICE AND GAVE A US A TOUR OF THE STATION.
THIS IS THE QUINT PARKED IN THE APPARATUS BAY WHERE THE ENGINE PARKED ON THE SHOW.
THIS IS THE KITCHEN, NEW UPDATED APLIANCES AND NEW CABINETS AND ALSO A NEW KITCHEN TABLE WERE SOME OF THE UPDATES TO THE STATION.
THIS IS THE BACK OF THE STATION, NOT SHOWN MUCH ON THE SHOW BUT THOSE WHO REMEMBER IT, THEY WILL RECOGNIZE THE BASKETBALL HOOP STILL THERE.
THE LOCKERS JUST AS THEY WERE IN THE SHOW, ONLY REFINISHED SINCE THEN.
HANNAH POSING WITH THE 3 FIREFIGHTERS WHO GAVE US THE TOUR OF THE STATION!
