Los Angeles, California
Day 1:
Landed at LAX. Went through customs and all the way to the outside taxi rank, still thinking " this could be Australia"
Only heard one American accent throughout the whole time!
Same as Oz, people working there from all backgrounds.
Whilst waiting in the que for a taxi, I'm checking out the first black American dude working there in his cool Raybans, thinking " ok, I'm here"
Checked into Days Inn Hotel on Sunset Blvd. Nice place, great location, clean...
