L.A - Sleepy Day

The over night flight from Lima to L.A was 8 hours long, but due to time differences it had apparently only been a couple of hours. We didn't sleep a wink, and were very tired! We arrived at LAX airport, and were scrutinised by security before we came in. Steph thought he was just being friendly, so when asked 'how long are you intending to stay' she replied with 'just a few days, were actually travelling'. He didn't look happy at the idea of chit chat, and repeated his question in a way that made Steph realise he meant business. 

We got on a shuttle bus that took us to our new LA home, the Jolly Roger hotel. We got into our room, and fell asleep almost instantly.

We woke up from our 'short nap' 4 hours later, and realised we hadn't actually seen any of L.A yet. We groggily got up, and thought we should at least take a walk down to Venice beach, which was only a 20 minute walk away. We had a look around, ate some food, and saw some of the strange locals who resided there. It was the moment when a man roller bladed towards us strumming an electric guitar whilst selling T Shirts, that we decided we still wern't in the right frame of mind to be dealing with such characters.



We carried walking down the strip and walked up a pier to get a proper look of the Venice Beach coast line.

We got back to the hotel and decided to book onto a tour the next day that would take us to L.A's must see spots in one day, as we felt we should at least do the classic sights! We went back to the hotel and had a weird evening of watching UFC wrestling, and fell asleep again.
