Hungover in Hollywood! Today we had a late lunch as we were all feeling a bit delicate, and then went to the Getty Center, which is a free art museum located in the hills of LA. The views were amazing, and the gardens were really pretty too. In the evening we had another free bonus, as dinner and wine was provided at the hostel!

"Wow, are you British? That's SO cool!!" This morning we went to the Farmers Market to catch the hop-on-hop-off bus again.

We waited ages for the bus outside the 'American Girl Place' shop, and saw a limo arrive full of seven year olds and their dolls! On the bus we stopped off at ...

On the bus a 60-ish man starting talking to me, and didn't stop until he got off the bus an hour later. As well as telling m...

"Dollar dollar bill y'all!!" Today we decided to get away from Venice Beach, which we've found to be very rundown and definitely not as glamourous as in the movies! There are a lot of crazy people along the beach front, and trolleys with homeless people sleeping in them are everywhere. We caught the bus to Santa Monica, and went on the Ferris Wheel on the pier, which provided beautiful views of the coastline and LA. There are also some really nice shop...
