Arrived in LA for the 4th July, and stayed at a hostel on Hermosa Beach for the first night. dissapointingly, the hostel was run by a french woman so she wasn't celebrating the 4th july. Next day we moved to a hostel in Hollywood, and walked down hollywood boulevard to see the walk of fame, and the handprints. On the 7th, we picked up our rental car, a MUSTANG!! we drove downtown to the LA gun club to go shooting. we hired and fired a 9mm beretta, a 9mm walther p99, a ruger 7.62 hunting rifle and about 200 rounds. it was loads of fun, max had a huge smile the whole time. we then drove to Santa Monica to stay for the night, then on to San Fransisco.
