LOS ANGELES MEMORIES

Hello, dear friends!:) Memory card on my camera is full so I've decided to have some of my photos printed. As I saw pictures from the last summer USA trip I had so many warm memories so I thought why not to write a post about it?
Well, as you can see from the title this article is about Los Angeles! Yay:)
I have spent there just two days in total, but they were most magical and incredible days of the summertime.
I arrived at LAX early in the morning, so I had a whole day ahead. First, I've decided to visit Santa Monica - the place that I was most excited about:) The taxi ride was pretty expensive - about 35 dollars, but it was worth it. As I arrived at Santa Monica, the first thing I saw was Menchie's Frozen Yogurt, which is beloved by lots of celebrities and I couldn't miss it:) I will be honest with you guys: it was the most delicious froyo I've ever tried! If you have a chance try it and you won't be disappointed! The beach was amazing: so beautiful with incredible views.
On the next day I had a 8 hour bus tour. The group was small - about 10 persons, which was great! We visited all the famous places: Venice beach, Griffith Observatory (great views of LA and the Hollywood sign), Walk of fame, Rodeo Drive, Chinese theater and Sunset blvd. and more:) It was amazing experience. After the tour I had some time for shopping. The Beverly Center was located near my hotel so I went there. This shopping mall is huge! You can find everything there: from Forever21 to Louis Vuitton!:)
On the next day I had my flight, but it the morning I have had a little bit of time and I wanted to try famous In-n-Out burger. This chain claims to have the real burgers and is located mostly in California.
That's all my dears, but I also want to give some tips and tricks:
1. Taxi from the airport is very expensive. The cheaper way is to book a SuperShuttle.
2. If you don't have a car, choose the hotel, that is close to the most attractions.
3. If you have at least 4 days ahead, I would suggest you getting a hop-on hop-off bus ticket, so you can choose at what location you can spend more time and what location you could skip.
4. Visit Disneyland or/and Universal Studious.
5. Visiting Santa Monica or Venice beach is a must.

Have a great day,
xoxo
