Ohhhhhh December is even nearly over so very quickly (to myself most likely) here is November Part 2 (and partly into December), I think it is officially called PALACEUSA2.0 or EATING WAY TOO MUCH FOOD AND FEELING SICK BUT IT KINDOF BEING WORTH IT REALLY

• Tacos. Many awesome and tiny tacos. Also margaritas.
• The Bazaar!
• The Gorbals. We saw Ilan, daaaang <3 Also I ate tripe for the first time.
• Thanksgiving! We met some amazingly nice chef/restaurant owners in LA who adopted us into their private Thanksgiving dinner it was pretty great!
• KOGI TACO TRUCK these tacos get a point of their own because holy shit the hype is for realzzzz
• A bunch of other excellent restaurants all of which were A++
• Where The Wild Things Are! Fantastic Mr Fox! Also A Serious Man & Men Who Stare At Goats. Also UP! on the plane which I think I cried through at least 50% of. (it was a long and lonely flight okay and that movie is SAD, GEEZ.)
• San Francisco Zoo helloooo miniest gorilla ever
• Alcatraz! Sometimes touristing is good and this was one of those times.
• Maurice Sendak exhibition at the Jewish Museum (I want to call it the Jew-seum so bad, sorry?)
• BRIDGES & MOUNTAINS: MASSIVE.
• The French Laundry! Geez Louise. This one can't really be described.

Conclusion: Los Angeles is odd, and...well I don't know what else to say about it really. San Francisco is great and I can understand why san franciscans would hold some pride in being so. 'Wine regions' are the same everywhere (see: Napa Valley, Margaret River - these are the only two I have been to but I'll assume the entire world is like this).
