Southern Cali advice?

If you want to stay away from touristy places....VENICE BEACH is DEFINITELY not the right place LOL. But it is fun

well that seems touristy in a good way. :) I want to see all of the little shops and artists. And tattoo shops!!

No tattoos in Venice........dirty dirty DIRTY

yikes. my hubby and i can definately pick out a shoddy tattoo shop right away. he will blatantly complain about poor talent and uncleanliness; maybe i should prepare for a fist fight! lol

If I go the rest of my life without ever coming close to stepping foot within LA city limits again, it will be a life well-lived.
