LA LA LAND... 

The city of impossible public transportation and giant freeways, where neon found 
it's home and the super mall reigns king.

The vast size of this pocket of the west is in-comprehendible, as you journey through 
the concrete pathways it seems as if there is nothing but more and more concrete and not a 
sole in sight just other SUV's and Buick's. Then you twist and turn and you're there. 

The beauty of the city is best seen from above; travelling out of the warm valley and 
up intothe cactus covered peaks you reach fresh air and you can pause to gaze at the 
wonder that lies beneath you. This concrete carpet stretches for miles and miles, further than 
you can see,and the air up here is rich with the scent of pines and tropical flowers. I didn't want 
to go back down to the bright signs, the BIG gulp drinks and the yoga glad women. 

But down i did go, exploring the streets on two wheels not four and discovering the secret 
pockets of Venice with its tiny canals with tiny wooden clad houses surrounded by 
hummingbirds, ducks and lazy cats. 

In three days i ventured as far as the slowest bus in the world would carry me and left at just the
 right time. I'm still longing for another cactus or succulent sighting and another dip in the 16 lane 
pool that filled my never ending swimming dreams...

  1. Love the pictures! Please invest in a tinted visor and some rollerskates to go with the stretch pants. And possibly also some leopard print or lame. And who knew Venice actually had canals?!?! AMAZING. Loved reading this, you've got a really great style. More please - so glad you're having a fab time xxx
