| Page Views: 727 Last Visit to Los Angeles: July, 2006 | L.A. - Big Orange, gloss and glitter by Muya - last update: Jan 14, 2007 |
The City of Angels – undoubtably…but we didn’t see any :-) Impressive – totally. To such an extend that it is quite difficult to qualify or describe this oversized megalpolis. Huge – absolutely. Hard to say where it starts and where it ends…More than 70 suburbs, longing to find a centre, are reunited to form the “Greater Los Angeles”. Superficial – probably. Although it quite met our expectations.
In fact, L.A. is a good summary of sunny California and all the clichés we expect to find there, bringing together the 3 main features that fit the postcard : sea, sun and palm trees. Although maybe one was missing : the roller-skating-blond-girl wearing shorts, that inevitably appeared in every episode of ChiPs (remember Frank Poncherello and Jon Baker ? :-) )…
But L.A. is also the one and only city that comes to your mind when you think about Hollywood and its movie stars. And you’ll notice that : a sort of magic spell still emanates from this place where it all began, the place where so many people believed their dreams would come true…
A city thus synonym of magic and fame, with two main parks celebrating this : Universal Studio with the magic of the movies, and Disney Land with the magic of childhood. I would not be able to tell which one of them is the most magical … But you’ll have understood my point…the keyword here is MAGICAL :-) |
