Day 62: Los Angeles
Posted by Tai on May 1, 2006
Staying at Venice Beach hostel right on Venice Beach. This is LA's answer to Marroccos Djeema Square.
There is muscle beach, basketball, racketball, roller bladers, boxers, gymnesses, skateboarders, dancers on roller skates, painters, philosophers, rap dancers, bikers, latinos with dogs, tattoo palours, the drum club in the beach, graffiti painting areas.
This is the "Louis Vuitton" motorbike. The bikers got escorted away by the cops, there was about 30 of them.
It has a real vibe. See the big black guys playing basketball and hassling each other. The huge guys doing weights in Muscle beach. Behind them you've got guys practicing thai boxing and also gym. Then there was the family getting their tattoos together.
Then walked to San Monica Pier and 3rd street.
