Downtown 'in da hood'
Today we went into ‘downtown’ to see Olvera St (Mexican market) and Chinatown. Then we went to Universal City walk
We saw an LA feral – a one-eyed guy hurling abuse at us in our car swinging this massive chain! We were a bit worried until we drove down the street past him and he sort of walked after our car really slowly still yelling at us! We were soon out of his reach!
I saw something that Rachel would have probably loved. A 67’ Mustang convertible with blue exterior and what looked like white leather interior. I didn’t have my camera with me unfortunately! In the same carpark (Baja Fresh, Mexican food) I saw a monster truck!! This is taking the big-car thing to a whole new level. This was a full-on monster truck!!!!!! Apparently you can just buy these and drive them around!?!?!?!?
I got a cool leather bracelet from Olvera St from a really nice guy who custom makes them for you. Going to Hollywood tomorrow and the spaghetti factory!?!? (don’t ask me) I’ll tell you about it tomorrow!
The Mexican food is good here! I am going to try as much as possible while I'm here, the authentic stuff isn't supposed to be as flavoursome as American or Australian versions but is nice. The Americans have chain Mexican places like the place we went tonight for tea - (sorry, dinner) Baja Fresh, as well as Taco Bell and del Taco or something.
I had my photo taken with the Mexican musician who was playing in the mall. Muchos Grazias Amigo!
