I Really Wanna be in LA





We're about to start day three in LA and so far......its awesome! There was never any doubt in my mind about that. Got here on Sunday after a Greyhound, bus, metro, bus combination (sounds worse than it was!) and got to the Banana Bungalows where we are staying with ease. This hostel is much bigger than the one in San Diego and there are more social areas. All of the rooms have patio doors onto the outdoor 'tiki lounge' which is pretty cool. When we arrived we walked for 10 minutes to The Grove (if you like MTV reality shows then you may remember it from Laguna Beach!) and went to the Farmers market where we ate MASSIVE slices of pizza and drank really weak American cider. Had our second celeb spot (forgot to say before that we saw Henry Holland at San Diego airport!) as we saw the guy who played Luke in the OC (the one who went out with Mischa Barton's character in the first series) and he really does look like the 'all America guy'! Back at the hostel we met our new roomies who have turned out to be brilliant fun. Two girls from Sweeden and a guy from Germany (so we're keeping in European). Paige and I introduced them to some classic drinking games (which you may recognise from the pics above!) and then we went to the Rainbow Rooms which were pretty cool. I forced Paige to sing Kareoke with me so we destroyed a bit of Green Day in the process! Yesterday we went down to Santa Monica for a mooch around and then today the plan is to go back and hire bikes so we can ride from Venice Beach to Santa Monica then potentially to Malibu! Will update you guys all again soon - can't believe we've not even been here a week yet! Seems like ages since we were in the UK......
