Orange you glad we weren't hit by a palm frond?!

Chambers' bootcamp on Friday was particularly fun! It went by in a snap and we had a great time mucking around, reading plays, and creating scenes. After a finding-a-bathroom fiasco in which Luce visited a Starbucks, Subway, random Japanese restaurant, and finally (accompanied by Han) a Holiday Inn to find a loo, we drove out to Mum and Q's for the weekend! We satisfied a craving for Chipotle burritos for dinner and watched Catching Fire - so good! 

Yesterday we went exploring and found a beautiful - and massive - orange grove! We walked around, dared Q to pick a kumquat and eat it (which he did, despite it being underripe haha Han had better luck, it was actually pretty yummy!). Walking among the palm trees scattered through the orchard, things took a terrifying turn when the wind picked up and huge beanches started dropping all over the place! We snapped a quick pic and got outta there!!
We grabbed some delicious oranges from the fruit stand and some lollies from the gift shop then headed to lunch at a Turkish restaurant we'd seen in a magazine. 
It was INCREDIBLE! Ohmygod YUM! The dips, bread, rice, and beef, lamb, and chicken kabobs were to die for and we ate more than our fill! We slumped home in a satisfying carb-coma and had a very snoozy afternoon reading, sleeping, and doing absolutely nothing free of guilt. We watched the most recent Thor movie in the evening and we're all very impressed with its twists and turns - and with everything about the gorgeous Chris Hemsworth! 

Today we had a super yummy brekkie, did our laundry, and procrastinated leaving Mum and Q's for longer than was plausible haha. We're just arriving home now, actually! We had a long chat with Izzy on the way, we CANNOT WAIT for her and Sarah's visit! We have House of Cards in store tonight and a jam-packed week ahead! WOO!!!

Cruisin' for a Burnin'

These last few days have been so, so cruisey. We've gone to the park, walked to Ralph's, gotten boba, become absolutely hooked of House of Cards, Han's cleaned the apartment and worked out, and Luce has cooked/baked some delicious food! Also, Luce's come down with a pretty bad cold so we figured that was a sign to go easy on ourselves! We haven't entirely known what to do with all this down-time but it's been a really lovely break - especially because the next few weeks are going to be extremely busy (in the most fun way possible, so no complaints!). We've run some errands too and worked on various lines and ideas for scenes and plays going on. We also submitted ourselves today for an audition so we'll see if we get asked in! The coolest piece of news is that, we found out yesterday, we're officially going to be performing in the HOLLYWOOD FRINGE FESTIVAL in June!!! Ahhh SO EXCITING!!!!! We're sure the time until then will fly by too!
The other highlights of the week have been:
1) A wonderful girls' night on Tuesday with Sullivan! She came over and we chatted, ate cookies, and watched an adorable chick flick :)
2) Yesterday the weather was AMAZING so we went to the beach! 
We laid out, read our books, and dipped our toes in the freezing cold ocean! On the way back, we opted for the scenic route and it was such a stunning drive! Winding through mountains and cute little shops and homes, so sweet! And the view was incredible!!
When we got home, though, we realized that - true Hannah and Lucy style - we'd both been fried to a crisp at the beach!!!
Hahahah it was pretty freakin hilarious, we couldn't believe it! Classic. We're doing better today though and now we've just got a head start on that LA tan! 
Today's shaping up to be another quiet, errands day. We're planning on going to see the LACC one act plays tonight, which should be a blast! We've been called in to help out at Chambers' bootcamp tomorrow, so we're finishing the week strong and we'll be all rested up and ready to go for this jam-packed month ahead!
