Day 49

It is my last day in USA. I set out to visit one long stretch beach. while buying presents for my friends.

I tried to top up my public transport card which I last used in 2016. Unfortunately, I pressed the wrong button, which means I purchased a new public transport card. Gah!

Upon reaching the destination (near Venice Beach), the first thing is that I bought See Candies chocolate. I checked with saleslady if there is any issue to carry the chocolate boxes around - I was assured that there is no problem (fast forward, the chocolate didn't melt in 2 days later by the time I reach in Singapore).

I walked towards beach to learn more why so many people shortlist long stretch beach in Los Angeles.

I have no plan to swim there. Probably Jaw movie implanted in my mind.






There are many country flags planted there. I do not have any idea why it is like that.









I was surprised to see open-space gym at the beach. Very unique to me.

I am walking towards Santa Monica beach.

I made sure I find In-n-Out outlet so that I can try animal fries which I didn't get to eat in 2014.




Finally, it is at night. I have to go to Los Angeles International Airport by public transport (train and then free bus). I did reach there on time despite of huge traffic jam on the road leading to airport.






Goodbye Los Angeles and USA.

As I check-in (using the self check-in machine) in front of the presence of ANA air stewardness, she checked my ticket. She wanted to smooth my flying experience. Somehow, she seemed to be surprised because my arrival destination is Haneda Airport (instead of Changi Airport).

I told her 'Hai (yes), that is right'. I assured her that there is no mistake on my air ticket.
