on our way to cafe gratitude, ellie and i planned to grab coffee in downtown. i didn’t find directions until we were already on the road (never again) and i kept getting different directions on where this coffee shop was. finally, we got to the downtown, parked (which is a hassle in and of itself) and walked to where the directions said the coffee shop was. note to self: never use instagram for directions. after walking for what seemed like forever in some super sketchy areas, we finally got to where my map said the coffee shop was. and surprise!, it wasn’t there. though we were disappointed, we decided to make the best of it and explore a little. we ended up finding a balcony of an office building that had an amazing view and on our way back to the car (which was far less sketchy than the way we came), we found some beautiful murals. even though we didn’t find what we came for (we later found out the coffee shop was just a few streets away), we ended up having a fun adventure anyway. LA, i still love you, even when you are really confusing to get around<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
