I was recently on a road trip in California, and posted a lot about it without starting with the beginning – Los Angeles. I didn’t have any good pictures because the camera was stolen in our hotel… I do have pictures from my phone, it’s messy and not as nice as ‘real’ pictures but I loved my stay so much that I wanted to blog about LA.

I really wanted to begin this trip with Los Angeles. It’s the second largest city in the country, and it was my first time there. People in general have strong opinions about the city – they either love it or hate it. I have good Angelinos friends and I didn’t want to tell them: ‘your city suck’. I had 3 days to make up my mind – or at least a first opinion. I loved it. I may have only been to the crème de la crème of Los Angeles, but that’s the point in a way, when you travel in short period of time? Going to the nice places rather than the crappy ones. So here’s what I saw, did and ate in LA for 3 days.
