On a recent trip to Los Angeles, we had the opportunity to visit Hollywood. We were complete tourists and did all the things tourists do. The kids put their hands in the hand prints at Grahmen's Chinese Theater, we took photos of the famous Hollywood sign and we visited the Kodak Theater where the Academy Awards are handed out. How appropriate that the stairs leading to the theater are created in red smalti- just like the red carpet! Mixed in with the red smalti are gold pieces, as in Oscar's favorite color. What a wonderful way to commemorate the highest honor in acting with the best tile in the world! So beautiful....
