	Catch up on the net, then we headed into LA for some shopping http://www.fashiondistrict.org/. 90 blocks of wholesale and importer-run stores is a lot of shopping, though a bit rough and intimidating. We didn't buy anything, my sense is with some patience and time you could get a lot of decent clothes inexpensively, but you'd end up with some rejects.

It was shocking to be confronted by a man with a hypodermic needle coming out of parking, though something similar happened to me in the subway in Toronto.

	Next, happy hour at Border Grill, an established mexican place in Santa Monica. Happy hour, with drinks and appetizers half price or less, is more of a tradition here than at home. Too bad!

	Then we met A & L for some dinner - more sushi, this time we tried "chef's choice" where it's courses of seasonally sensible sushi. Very nice. A & L have been getting us into cold sake, we always thought warm was the style but apparently it's often a sign of inferior sake!

			Visited the zoo.. no tigers today. But very cuddling pendas. Impressive 100 years old tortoises eating flowers.
			Hippos, crocos and a large variety of monkeys and birdies.

			Walked gaslamp quarte in search of authentic pizza. Lots of authentic italian restaurants, but none to satisfy a pizza craving. Travelled north to Little Italy on India street. I recommend a short stop here for canoli, gelato and of course lunch or dinner.

			Pizza craving satisfied.
