Once you live here you must appreciate long weekends. With you 10-15 days of paid vacation (including sick leave) in case you get a long weekend because of a holiday, you have to do something. That's how me and m wife spent the last weekend in L.A. Considered as a mini honey moon.
The hotel was cheap but great.
We saw the start in the pavement, the Hollywood sign, laid on the sun on the beach's white sand and enjoyed the whole day long carnival on Venice Beach.
Venice Beach is a freak show. You get first the muscle beach of course where Arnold started many years ago. We got lucky, and the annual contest was held on Monday:
Luckily this is not only for men but also for women. And even more luckily women were not so bulky but had a rather sexy body:
And no age limit:
And again, freaks :)
But you meat freaks and other crazy people everywhere here
Shows were the same every day, with the same jokes. And they worked every single time. Question if that is thanks to the medical marijuana you can get (along with the required prescription) right on the beach
If you are in the mood, just start a festival right in the sand. All you need is the mood (remember you need prescription, but thanks God, the doctor was in :P) a couple of drums, and the people
And the beach? Well it is marvelous, but only in the afternoon. Mornings it is foggy and super cold.
And you need to buy souvenirs? No problem
It did worth the 8 hours drive from the Bay to L.A. I had the time of my life even though I couldn't get my prescription since I don't even have a social security number yet. The place is odd, but a must see :)
