On another day we spent 12 hours exploring LA via train and the various forms of public transportation that most people claim LA doesn't have.
We arrived at Union Station in downtown LA and went across the street to visit Olvera Street. This is know as the street that eventually would grow to become the city of Los Angeles.

Then we took the subway to Pershing Square which is in the center of downtown LA. We also went to the top of that building behind James. It's the U.S. Bank Building and its the highest observation building on the Westcoast. The 360 degree view of LA is amazing.

Next we took a bus to the Art District of LA and took a 2 and a half hour walking tour of LA's vibrant art district. We saw dozens and dozens of buildings with some of the most amazing murals, street art and grafitti.

Next we went via subway up to Hollywood. Where we walked down the world famous Hollywood Blvd.

I had so much fun showing James around. He took a lot more photos than I did. I hope he gets a chance to post them so you all could see LA from his perspective.
James was the perfect guest. A few days before he arrived I asked him what kind of food he liked so I could stalk up my refrigerator for the week he was here. He replied, "I'm not picky. If you guys eat lasagna for breakfast, I'll eat lasagna for breakfast. If you guys are vegan, I'll be vegan for a week." Like I said, James was a perfect guest.
You guys did a ton of stuff! Just amazing man
