Saturday, July 18
Anna and I left home early in the morning, but our flight was delayed, and we didn't arrive at
LAX until late in the afternoon. We were really tired, but we took a bus to our hotel because
taxis in Los Angeles are very expensive. When we got to the hotel we rested, and then went out
to explore the city. We had a quick sandwich in a small cafe, and then we headed for Rodeo Drive
to buy clothes.
I bought a jacket and some T-shirts there. I wanted to buy a bag too, but I couldn't find one
that I liked. In the evening, we ate in an Italian restaurant and went to a club to dance. We met
some really nice people and had so much fun that we didn't get back to the hotel until very late!

went to bed early. We wanted to get up early the next day and explore Venice Beach.
