Well that was a crazy trip. Next time I have to try and make it for more than 24 hours.
Manhattan beach was interesting. Had a couple fish tacos at Wahoo and then grabbed some sushi at Octopus. Enjoyed sitting on the pier for a bit and relaxing. Definitely screwed up in forgetting a cigar.
I also learned that the red lights on the outside lane at LAX are also to be followed on the inner lane. It also is not recommended to talk on a cell phone as you cut off a cop trying to pull into the lane while the light you can't even see is red.
