LA Trip : Day10- Venice Beach

I went to Santa Monica again.
I visited very lovely shop : Michaels !!
Painting materials sold in this shop are very cheap.
The price of painting materials of Japan might be too expensive!!



Lunch ate kebab with SantamonicaPlace.
It frequently eats the meat of the ram in Sapporo where I live.
However, I heard that the American hardly ate the meat of the ram.
and it was eaten only in the shop of the Indian restaurant or the Mongolian restaurant.



It went to Venice Beach in the evening.
There were a lot of people who sold the art of the picture etc. on the beach because it was Sunday today.
However, when we arrived, the preparation of closing the store was done because it was cold.
I will visit Los Angeles again in summer.
At that time, it can meet the artist to the work a lot.



and these are today's my take....



Okay Thank you for seeing my LA trip report!
I must back to Japan tomorrow.
Thank you very much for the many many kindness!!
I will back to Los Angeles (San Diego) in July!!
See you!!
