A Journey Beyond .....: Far, far away...

Travelling to the United States has alsways not been my favorites due to the long journey. On May 9, 2009, after the long 20 hours flight, together with my wife, we finally arrived in Los Angeles. Arriving at the LA airport has been a pleasant surprise to both of us. The expection of the worst security check I ever encountered did not materialise. In fact, after collecting our luggages, we just walked passed the security without any trouble.

Another thing I noticed was that the only one that were wearing masks (due to the A flu) were the foreigners, especially the Taiwanese.

This is supposed to be a free and easy trip for both of us. I did not really plan any thing except the airline tickets and hotel bookings. After arriving at the airport, we asked around and took the metro bus to Hollywood. It was an interesting journey as the bus took us through some interesting neighbourhood in LA. We also saw some interesting characters in the bus.

After checked into Motel 6 in Hollywood (not too bad for budget travellers), we decided to take a walk around the famous Kodak Theater.
