“Public transport in L.A” day

Fri 4^th Jan- 

4 buses:  We took a trip out to Venice Beach.  Interesting is the only word to describe it!  (2 buses there, 2 buses back to the hotel to collect our luggage).  This took up most of the day but it was an experience Neale didn’t want us to miss.

Our feet:  A long walk up a big hill to the train station with our all our luggage. 

3 trains:  Our first train from Hollywood to Union station ‘broke down’ and everyone on the whole train had to get off and get on another one.  Once at Union we transferred to the Orange county double decker train.

2 cars:  We were picked up at the station by our friend Rob, whose 2 bedroom unit we would be staying, at with his wife, Natasha and fun boys (primary aged).  Thankfully he has a good-sized car, which fit all our luggage in it.  After hellos we took their old 8-seater van into town for dinner for catch-ups.

A big day!  And we still have yet to get to Disneyland.
