Billage Idiot

Hooked up with Bill after my epic rest and headed down to Venice Beach for a little drinking and people watching. Was very suprised to find that Bacardi and Cranberry Snapple didn't make me go blind! (not my choice of beverage... but Bill was buying so i couldn't argue)

Sat on the rock wall that protects the shoreline from the waves and enjoyed the sunshine.

Bill gave me his website address... www.billageidiot.com hehehe... MUUUUUUTANT! (great guy though!)

Took a ride downtown (well two rides... Bill left his camera in teh hostel and as luck would have it the lovely mexican room cleaner had the foresight to throw it into the trash!

Half an hour and one stiiinky Bill later he emerged victorious!

Didn't really know what to expect from downtown LA... nevertheless the library was very cool! other than that the building's were building's and the shops were shops... I'm sure if i stayed here a while there would be some major exploring to get into, but it's such a hike to get here from Santa Monica without a car that by the time you're here... you wanna leave.

Had all intentions of going to bed early tonight, however i met these 3 guys from Australia who just got in from NY and thought bedtime was a bad idea... :-D

Got some pommy girls to get us a quart of burbon from the bottleshop and consumed it in the pool room. We were chowing through the quarters as the pockets here are HUUUUGE! (yes... even bigger than the William!!!)... Pissed Aussie ingenuity prevailed though, as we discovered that a tea towel or oven mitt would serve as a great 'keeper'.... thus saving our precious pennies and allowing us to buy more booze!!!
