LA LA land

We did the time-warp with our flight to Los Angeles. Left Brisbane at 11:10 Tuesday morning and arrived in LA before we left at 6:00 Tuesday morning after a 13 hour flight. Bit of a shakey shuttle trip from LAX to the Miyako hotel - it's in the "Little Tokyo" part of central LA.
   We dumped our bags there then explored the local Japanese shopping village.
We took the 10 minute hike to Union Station (where we are leaving from on Friday night) and got lots of advice and maps from the guy at the information desk. We had a snack lunch then headed out for another walk to counter the jet lag.

The Spanish/Mexican culture is very ingrained locally so we visited a local Mexican market and museum before getting the lift to the top of the town hall for some spectacular views of the city.
