The Love Bug
As I merged onto the 405 South, heading for my folks' in Laguna to enjoy an Easter lunch, I spotted an oddly colored VW Beetle zooming along the fast lane. Beige with solid blue and red stripes from the middle of the back bumper all the way across the top and down the hood to the fender. The number 53 painted black and floating in a white circle open the trunk. Now, either a studio was filming something (and I scrutinized as best I could the van in front of the car for hidden cameras), or someone is a certified Herbie the Love Bug fanatic. Then again, this is LA and anything's possible.

I saw the same one the other day!!! Was it a new bug or the old version? The one I saw was the new bug, a blonde lady was driving it I believe. But this was Friday tho.
Happy Easter Greg!!! And to Caesar, too!
okay, so you know what's REALLY weird....is that I watched bits and pieces of the Monte Carlo one and the other one just THREE nights ago....and I haven't seen them in 20 years. Hum.....weird, these things.
doncha just love the autos we see in La. You just never know what might pass you.
Never underestimate a Beetle owner! We are capable of anything. ;)

Thankfully, you stayed in your own driving lane while scrutinizing. ;-)
