Driving Mulholland drive and the snake

After we gave up on ever renting anything from Turo, and Ester convincing us to stay another night, we decided to do the drive that Seamus originally wanted to. We drove up past Malibu on the 101 that we missed coming down the coast (as we turned east towards Las Vegas). We stopped at a nice seaside park called point Dume, but unfortunately there were no free parking spaces, so only I took a short walk, while Seamus waited in the car. Nearby we spotted a sign about an open house, and thought we might as well check it out and pulled into the driveway. We walked up to the house and a big living room and enormous terrace greeted us with a sea view. Eventually the realtor showed up, and freaked a bit out, as she was only supposed to let agents in... After we started walking back to the car she calmed down a bit, and chatted with us, apparently the rent for the house is 18500$ a month (but only in the down season, in the summer it's more). After this we drove up the mullholland highway and drove a famous short road known as "the snake" (the road with the most accidents in America) it is about 2 miles long but very twisty and narrow by American standards. We drove down it once with Ilus being thrown around everywhere by the sharp turns and then another time with Ilus deciding to sit it out and read instead :D the car being an SUV wasn't really made for this kind of driving so the poor engine was screaming and it had all different wheels wanting to slide around at different times going into the corners, luckily there were no accidents. At some point on the Mulholland drive suddenly quite a lot of cop cars appeared, and the road was closed off for a few minutes. Once we cod drive past, we saw lots of people and vans, and this strange big rolling trolley that they had a car on. We realised that they must be filming something, but we didn't know what. So we decided to pull over and ask the nearest person - who admitted it is the least glamorous thing of all: a mayonnaise commercial! On our way back to LA we drove through more very rich looking suburban little towns.Okumaya devam et
