Anahiem to Los Angeles

We got up relatively early and headed into Los Angeles. we decided to drive through Compton en route to our Santa Mionica. 

At first, was a little worried about driving through Compton, but when you're down there, it's like driving through any neighborhood, no worries. 

We stopped at a convience store and bought some alcohol. Something about being able to buy booze at a corner store... Canada should get with the program, it's just alcohol. 

Continuing on, we headed to Santa Monica Beach..

Dipped my feet in the Pacific Ocean, last time that happened was in Hawaii on the island of Maui back in 2010?

After checking out the beach for a bit we decided to wander around, we came across a seal camped out under the Pier. 

After out excursion under the pier we headed down the pier to check out what was going on the pier, we stopped and bought a sea shell from a vendor.

We spent a few hours there then headed to our North Hollywood motel. The Motel 6 on Whitley Ave and Hollywood Boulevard. We dropped off our stuff and headed out to eat.
