Thursday 27th January We had a long long sleep because of the previous days exertions, however we did not let fatigue deter us from going to see the Hollywood sign as well as Hollywood Boulevard. We had to get two buses from our hostel on Venice beach just to get to the district of Hollywood ( Los Angleles btw is stupidly big, too big may we say). Boob and Billy the new accomplice decided to climb up the hill to get close to the Hollywood sign. Wardy stayed at t...

A street that had a drugs salesmen everywhere and the best Music s...

Woke up quite early and we decided to hire bikes and go cycling over the Golden Gate bridge. It was a truly remarkable experience, the photgraphs which we will upload soonish will prove so.
