August 30, 2024 - Drove to LA and Back to San Diego

We got up earlier for a 3 1/2 hours drive to LA to visit Ying. At the time we visited Ying, she stayed in her youngest daughter Sharon's house. We ran into some LA traffic as usual, but it was not too bad.


When we got to Sharon’s house, then we realized that she lives in a mansion on a hilltop with only 7 other families in a gated area.  She has 7.4 acres of land with double fences, private swimming pool and basketball court.  We are so happy for them.


We chatted a little bit with Ying, then we took her out to eLoong Dumplings for lunch (per Sharon’s recommendation).  They have a lot of Chinese Northern Noodle dishes just like the Dough Zone in Houston.  It was good food and we ate a lot.


After lunch, we went to nearby Westlake Village and has a nice relaxing time with coffee, juice and a lot of catching up with Ying.


After we got back, we met Sharon’s husband Chuong, and their 2 kids Benjamin and Gwyneth.  

Then, Sharon and Chuong treated us dinner at a very nice Italian restaurant called BASTA in Agoura Hills.  The food were delicious and we had wonderful time there.  At the same time, Chuong told us that he spotted movie stars and celebrities there sometime.


Since we had another 3 1/2 hours to drive back to San Diego, we said goodby to them at BASTA and started to drive back.  With the traffic, it took us 4 hours to get back to our hotel. 


It was a very nice visit to Ying and Sharon's family.
