L.A. revisited

Desi nu am avut prea multe ocazii de a iesi in oras in ultimul voiaj  , am avut totusi placerea de a petrece o zi si o noapte in Los Angeles. Fata de ultima vizita pe acolo din 2010 , orasul pare sa fi decazut oarecum , am vazut pentru prima oara in metrou vanzatori ambulanti de apa , dulciuri , chiar si filme piratate pe DVD , deasemenea o gramada de oameni fara casa stationati cu cortul exact in Pershing Square din centrul orasului , dar in schimb partea turistica dinspre Hollywood era plina ochi cu turisti din toate colturile lumii , iar contrastul dintre ghetourile din Sud si luxul din Nord- West ramane la fel de mare. Daca seara am savurat viata de noapte variata si vie din Long Beach , pe timpul zilei am apucat sa particip la un tur organizat care ne-a plimbat pe dealurile din Hollywood , Beverly Hills si zona din jurul bulevardului Sunset.

Although I  did not had too many opportunities to go out last trip, I was still pleased to spend a day and a night in Los Angeles. Unlike my last visit there in 2010, the city seems to have declined somewhat, I saw for the first time in the metro  vendors selling water, sweets, even pirated movies on DVDs, also a lot of homeless people camping right  in Pershing Square , downtown, but instead the tourist in Hollywood was booming with tourists from all over the world, and the contrast between the ghettos in the South and the luxurious North-West remains big. During the day I got to participate in an organized tour , we drove in the hills of Hollywood, Beverly Hills and the area around Sunset Boulevard.
