Spent the last day in LA (christmas!!) at the popular tourist spot
Santa Monica Pier!
Along the boardwalk, there was stores, food, and most importantly A THEME PARK
Rides are paid on a per-ride basis at the ticket counter
I totally dig the pirate ship
Sat at the last row, held on to dear life and screamed my lungs out till the ride ended
Moving on to the beach...
Though we spent the entire day at the beach,
the time spent was relaxing, calm and worry-less,
a luxury we rarely have nowadays in our bustling city
After a whole semester of mugging in school both in-campus and at home,
I truly appreciate every minute of my trip
It was really sunny and warm despite being Winter
Everyone was in summer clothes!
Bring some extra clothing though, the day-night temperature differential is quite huge
Singaporeans showing off their American football skills ^^
BAYWATCH LIFEGUARDS?!!
surprisingly no, the lifeguard wasn't very baywatch-ish
much to my dismay
The sun sets and it's time to leave the beach before it gets too dark!
Famished we were at the end of the day
With the recommendation of a friend, we headed down to a popular spot known as Korean Town
Lots of Korean specialty stores and restaurants in the area
Skewers - Scallop, Mushrooms, Chicken Gizzards and Shrimp! wanted to be adventurous with the gizzards but they were so hard to chew :( |
US-influenced large portion sizes *_*
Stir-fry Octopus |
Beef Bulgogi - this was good! |
Kimchi with Tofu and Chicken |
Seafood Pancake - BEST Very Generous with the ingredients! The ones I see in Singapore are always mostly flour |
With this, we had our last meal in LA.
TOMORROW WE HEAD TO LAS VEGAS!
i believe it was a 4-5 hours drive :0
thank god I don't have a driving license yet
