I got up at 6, and had a light breakfast. First of all, I tried to get on a bus to go downtown, but it was not easy because there're lots kinds of buses and courses. Finally, I could get on the bus that was suppose to go downtown, but it took such a long time. While driving, I was very anxious whether I got a correct one or not.
After arriving downtown, I went to the information center to ask for a tour to Grand Canyon, but it was still not good. I decided to go San Francisco first. A staff recommended me to take a train to there because the landscape of this ride is very beautiful, full of ocean. After that, I went to a station to buy a ticket. I cost 78$! a kind of expensive. In L.A. I've seen a lot of black people, or people who speak Spanish, much more than N.Y. or Toronto. I wonder why? And in my opinion, black people are less friendly than white people...prejudice?
There were a lot of transit systems in L.A. not only public, such as shuttle bus or even regular bus. The cheapest transit cost is just 25 cents, incredible! But today, I walked most time because it's more interesting, and to get on a bus goes to a place where I wanna go is very difficult. L.A is so huge!
I went to China town, Little Tokyo, Japanese American musium, the cathedral church, mexican park(?), and so on. They were fairly good, I mean, it's not so desireble to go there.
In these two days, I met 2 foreigners. One is Mexican, and the other one is English. Mexican man, who was old, always talked about Christianitie, I was tired from his talking. And I couldn't hear English guy's English, I think it's not only because of my poor listening skill.
