    Round Two: from LA to San Diego

    Waking up to the sunrise over LA was something else. Spending the night in a bush was worth it. I left that day, after spending some time at a laundromat and getting everything washed. Then I took a bus to Redondo and spent a night there, then San Pedro, then Long Beach. Right now I'm on a...
