Shortly after arriving in Los Angeles, I felt inspired to take a selfie. This is on the stoop outside my cousin’s West Hollywood apartment.
This was my second visit to La Brea Tar Pits. I also went to LACMA next door for the first time.
I hadn’t noticed the saber-toothed tiger statues around La Brea before so I decided to take some shots.
Here are some more saber-toothed tigers.
I hiked Runyon Canyon on a very hot morning.
This is a shot from the top of the canyon with the hazy city in the background.
I went with my cousin to a car wash on Santa Monica Blvd., and the hallway was lined with autographed photos of all the famous people who had been there.
We went shopping on Melrose Ave., but all I bought was this Game of Thrones t-shirt.
We also stopped at Fred Segal. Everything was too expensive.
On July 4th, we hung out in a bungalow by the roof top pool at the Chamberlain Hotel.
Obligatory Hollywood sign photo
On our last day, we went to the Getty Villa.
There are big cats at the Getty Villa too.
And water lillies
Possibly best of all, four of us shared a humongous slice of chocolate cake at Gladstones in Malibu.
Here’s a better shot of that fine Game of Thrones t-shirt I picked up.
