chinatown no.2

on the way to chinatown
you must battle 
traffic
(insert balls over LA traffic idea here)
then there will be overly expensive parking
deal with it.
note to self about 
it is not really "in" Chinatown
it is near Olvera Street
style.
in order to get to the center of Chinatown
we hopped on the metro at union station
tourists 
backpackers

see you can go to chinatown AND japantown, for the Arts District

Let's move 4 stops down and start the underground.
but now that i just told you that, i'm going to have to kill you.
ahhhhhh!!!! just kidding, crazy cat mural near Grand Star Ballroom. 
John Park live painting
left Ooga Booga a hello!
we dig your shit!
(okay, enough brown nosing)

over and over again,
THE OWLS OF FUCKIN' GA'OOWL

TONIGHT, NIGHT.
plaid and leather chic
what does this man know?  his eye is knowing.
