Day 52: Is Santa Monica Perfect?
I got the bus to Santa Monica today. I was over an hour jounrey and only cost $1.25.
Before i got the bus to Santa Monica though, I went to see X-Files at manns chinese theatre. The actual theatre is amazing. it's really grand and posh (i think it is where they have premiers) Shame the film was not that great. It wasn't bad, certainly watchable, but a bit of a non film.
So, I found my way to the Hostel and checked in. It;s just like all other Hostelling International hostels - so it is really nice, and only 1 block from the beach.
I walked along the pier, as it is pretty famous and a main landmark in Santa Monica. It has lots of restaurants and tourists on it, and even a theme park.
I really wanted to see the new Will Farrell film - step brothers, so as I walked past the cinema, I decided to go see a film for the second time today. it was really funny and when it comes out in the UK, I shall definitely go and see it again. I had some really good sushi today, but again, food is still making me sick - hope it doesn't last long.
So, I am loving Santa Monica. Even though it is so close to L.A, it really is a world apart. it is really relaxed and less "scene" than say San Diego. The weather is perfect. it is not too warm and nice and breezy. Wish I had of stayed here longer rather than L.A.
