I had a pretty good sleep in the van. I hope Kylie and Blair did too and I didn't snore horrendously or something. I guess the main problem with the van is that in the morning you don't have a bathroom or anything so the first thing on the list was food and bathroom. We decided a filthy Wendys was as good as we needed and ate nutritious burgers for breakfast. I was a little bit hungover as well which certainly wasn't helping anyone.
The second on the agenda was the La Brae Tar pits and the George C. Page Museum. It was pretty cool. Holy shit they have found a lot of fossils in the tar pits, 750'000 or something! The museum had a lot of them including this mammoth:
It was pretty dated but still one of the better museums I have been to. We could also go and look at "Pit 91" which has had ongoing excavation since 1969. We then decided to go for a cruise up the hill behind the city. It was a cracker day but quite hazy so couldn't see out over the city too far. Did get this shot of Blair and Kylies sweet ride with the Hollywood sign in the background though:
In the afternoon we went to Venice beach to have a wander around. Holy crap there was a million interesting characters there. Lots of dudes trying to sell us CD's as well. Poor Blair is pretty rubbish at saying no and ended up yarning with a couple of them for ages. Heaps of shops selling the same shit too, dunno how they all stay open. Just before we left I took this:
We still needed to kill some more time before Stephanie got back from her trip so we went for a walk down Santa Monica Pier. There is a cool big ferris wheel on it that has changing lights on it that occasionally morphed into a scary face. Terrifying.
For dinner we went to buy ingredients for sandwiches. We decided we had eaten enough crap recently that we could justify sandwiches for dinner. We also bought some more tasty beer to drink while we were eating out healthy sandwiches.
