@LiberalLibrarian I know you are off for a minute, but my Santa Monica trip featured homeless/mental/aggressive individuals rising out of the streets onto the beach.. like zombies. Interesting.
@LiberalLibrarian I hear ya, bro!
I travelled a lot in my performance years.. and let me tell you.. I would be happy to NEVER see another "tourist" spot/hotel/club/cruise ship... or and airport, for that matter..
@JazzCrafter I remember the moment I said, "I won't come here unless it's required." I was shopping for Christmas, and the zoo-like nature just made me feel uncontrollably anxious.
