Day 67: My last day of the trip! I can't believe this is the last full day of my journey. I felt like I should do something really amazing to finish it off, but I have seena nd done everthing that I wanted to, so instead - I went shopping :o) I need to get some new shorts, but instead I bought a skirt and a hat.

Day 55: A californian earthquake I was sad to leave Santa Monica today, to go to L.A, but I had already paid for my hostel, so I had to go. The journey back was very uneventful, and it was only when I was back at the hostel that the excitement happened.
