Hollywood Undead

We have spent one whole week in Los Angeles! I really like it.
Especially now we have a hire car.

Everyone we speak to says LA kind of sucks without a car,
and I think now it's going to be difficult to go back to the
shitty public transport, which we will have to do tomorrow
when the car goes back! We've had a fairly hectic week.
On Monday, after three nights in the hostel off Hollywood
Boulevard, we spent two nights at Will's friend Dana's house,
off Melrose. Dana was wicked and even gave up her bed for us!
During the two days at Dana's we went to Universal studios,
and then we met Morris. Morris helps kids find vans.

That's literally what his card says. Well pretty much anyway.

He didn't help us find a van.

But he drove us round for a couple of days and we got more
of an idea what kind of camper we want/need, and also gave
us more of a clue regarding insurance etc. On Wednesday we
met a bloke called Mark who works in a car rental place.
He was from Bristol, same as Will, and helped us find somewhere
that would rent me a car. Because I'm under 25, most places
(including the place he worked) wanted to charge us zillions
for insurance. So we got a car!

Driving in LA isn't nearly as bad as I thought!
I kept drifting over to the right and I've scraped the wheels a
bit because I forget I'm sat on the left when I park. Plus today I
gave us a puncture, which I just remembered we forgot to fix.
But we're still alive, anyway!

I also bought a kickin jumper with geese on. (Will made me
say kickin.)

On Wednesday and Thursday evening we slept at Lisa's house.
We found Lisa on Couchsurfing.com. Her, and her dog Baby, live
off Sunset, and her house was super cute. It was yellow!


Lisa took us out for Korean tofu food. What's that all about.

In camper news, we saw a few. They all merge into one.

We've done a lot of internet research and tonnes of driving
around. I drove on the freeway! This morning we left Lisa's
and found another couchsurfer to stay with.

He is called Robert and/or Leon also lives off Sunset.
The three of us went out for Thai food tonight, it was super nice!
We also went to Dodger Stadium today! That was awesome.

There was a wedding on the diamond. You know, where they
run round. We chilled out this afternoon in Elyssia Park. It had nice trees.

In LA, there are humming birds! I've never seen a humming bird before,
they are SMALL.

Like, real small! Like fat moths. But the kind that you'd literally
love to have flying round your toilet light while you pee.

That's about it I think. Although I will just mention that Robert/Leon
has the best decor ever. I'll take a pic.
