Sharing my LA Story

I started the second day with light snack at the motel. Then I visited office to complete rest of transition. It was easy as it was half-a-day. Once the office was over, I had nice lunch in CPK (California Pizza Kitchen) in Brea Mall.

Then I started visiting beaches. I was informed that they are beautiful. I guess, it wasn't the right time to be beautiful. Still they were good, but kind of OK. There were few people hanging here and there that's it-no crowd at all. I visited lot of beaches and took a scenic Pacific Coast highway no.1-Supposed to be a good drive.

I kept Venice beach (a beach with lots of activities) in the last as it was near to LA. I was about to reach there and at the last moment, got an unexpected call. I had to park my car in Starbucks and attend it. Once the call was over, I tried to visit Venice, but Sun came down and it was over. As I had already checked out of last hotel (in Brea) in morning and I was visiting all the beaches, I had to change in my car itself. When I checked in to hotel in LA, it seemed like I was living in my car. I had all the stuff in my hand and it was scattered all over.

I was feeling hungry, so planned to visit a nearby restaurant. A blue guy came over there behind me and asked for food. I felt pity and got him a burger. He took off after taking it and I felt safer. Then I ate my dinner and came back to hotel. It was a nice and cheap hotel as per LA. 

Last not the least day of my visit was to cover entire LA. I know sounds crazy, still I pulled it off in my way which is the only way.

I started off with Griffith Observatory. Perfect place to take a picture with Hollywood sign without even going near to it. 

Then visited Hollywood walk of fame-A crazy place. A place where you can find names of all the personalities of America. In the last, I checked out Universal studios. I didn't entered inside as it would have been time/money consuming and I was alone. Still, I took an outside tour. After completing everything, I checked out beetle and took a shuttle to airport. I planned it so perfect that there was a lot of time left before my flight. Next morning, I was in Chicago.

Los Angeles

Here it goes again...

There are times when I don't write for a while and then there comes time when I keep writing. It's the later part now. I visited LA few months back but never got a chance to write about it. I was entangled in a way that I could not find time to write anything. Anyways, I am back now. You will find frequent updates from now on...

Here's my LA story.

My Boss comes to my desk and says "You have to go LA tomorrow" 

I said "seriously" 

he says "yes, book tickets now"

And another minute, I am booking tickets for LA.

I planned everything quickly. I can stay only 2 nights, hence I had to plan it properly. Also I was alone, so 2 nights/3 days were enough for me to explore it as per my taste. I had to leave early next day but still I stayed late in office to properly plan and book everything-car,hotels etc.

Next morning, I reached ORD airport and then to LA. I took a Beetle from airport and headed directly to office. I had to get a training from the current IT person over there. She was going out of account, so her office mates planned a farewell party. We attended the party and started taking a walk through the office building. I just wanted to get the feel of how work is done there so that I can provide transition to new tech. We completed our tour soon and then discussed places to visit nearby. I did'nt wanted to deep dive as I was already tired. Evening, I went to the hotel. Got refreshed and headed to eat something as I was really hungry. I did'nt had much in morning. I was trying to take a selfie while eating and a lady sitting next table tried to come into picture. I invited her and then we started talking about places to visit and what not. There were two Cali ladies and were saying that I should go to beach to see more as they are beautiful.
I cracked a joke by saying, "I wanna see girls and not ladies".

I finished my dinner and headed towards the city to take a walk. I spoke with few people at home and then came back to have a sound sleep.
Good Night.
