I only took one photo today over the 100km from Malibu to LA, pretty much sums up what I think about about the place!

Tonight I stayed at Ken & Kenny’s house slightly north of Long Beach that I found through warmshowers which is very like couchsurfing but it’s aimed at cycle tourists.  The hosts are generally into cycling and its free to stay for a night or two.  Ken and his friend Leanna prepared dinner and after we watched Man Of Steel.  They have a dog called Alvin, I think he’s a pitbull, anyway the dog comes over and starts enthusiastically licking my legs and feet and won’t stop, this is his thing, it was totally disgusting, I’m on the edge when it comes to liking dogs or not, but Alvin has pushed me over to the hate side. Damn dogs!
