Santa Monica

You guessed it! The first photo was not taken at Santa Monica. It was taken onboard an AA B738 from Vegas to LAX.
What took my interest is that those things on the ceiling are the life rafts. Talk about a great use of space!!
I have seen onboard when we have used a 737 to replace an A320 on a trans-tasman flight. A massive liferaft is wedged onto a set of 3 seats. Looks as ugly as sin, and must be as awkward as buggery to manhandle into position. Even the Airbus uses locker space which could be used by pax.

Anyway, we eventually foound a shuttle, and made it to the Holiday Inn at Santa Monica. Very average hotel, but location "to die for".
Went for a wander down the pier. Evidence attached.
