16/10/2013: Warner Bros and the homes of the stars

The weather is a repeat of yesterday. It is fine and sunny with no visible smog.

I take the shuttle service from the hotel to the Starlines Tour depot. Then the bus from the depot to Warner Bros studios.

The Warner Bros studio tour begins with a short film on Oscar winning films and we meet our guide for the day. We begin the tour at the *town* where many TV shows have been filmed including: The Waltons; Dukes of Hazzard; and Pretty Little Liars.

We visit the Wraners Bros Museum and saw costumes used by Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino; Heartbreak Ridge and Dirty Harry. We also visit the car museum which includes various Batmobiles and the Gran Torino from the film of the same name.

I then transferred back to the Starlines Tour depot and spent the afternoon looking at the homes of Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top); Tom Cruise; Michael Jackson and Quentin Tarantino.

We also cruise Rodeo Drive and Sunset Boulevard. We drove along Mulholland Drive to a lookout with views of the San Fernando valley and the LA basin. The views are fantastic.
