Occasionally it is possible to see the Hollywood sign when you ‘re in the city. From our apartment we could see the “Hollywood” sign up on the hills.

Hollywood

We decided to walk up to the hill and enjoy the view.

We also went to Griffith observatory that is really close to the Hollywood sign. One the one side you could see the mountains with the Hollywood sign and on the other you can see the whole city of LA.

We parked our car here.

We came back after we’ve been to the Griffith observatory. When we came back our car was broken into and we were greeted with a surprising sight.

rear right window broken

A bag was stolen. In it was some food and swimmsuits. There also was a credit card inside the bag. The bag itself was also pretty nice.

We didn’t have good phone reception to call the Credit Card company nor the police nor anyone who could fix the window.

We eventually ended up calling the credit card company and locked the card. Now it was time to go to the Police and file a report.

The Police was helpful. We were having the insurance papers on hand to look for the AGBs. The insurance might cover it.

We decided that the window has to be fixed. We searched for a car repair shop.

Some Mexican repair shop taped us the window shut and said on where to go further. He did not want any money. He said “Those fucking Blacks”.

The US seems less racist at times than Germany and sometimes it seems more racist.

It took some time and money to fix the window but the day was far from over.

heading through the city

We went west to Venci Beach.

I really liked Vencie Beach. It was to see and be seen. The people walking here are the trendsetters of tomorrow.
