Tonight I am once again exhausted, and there were only nine stairways in today's route, section H. I got a late start, about 10 am and walked continuously through the day, minus a few stops to use bathrooms, refill water and purchase food which I can eat while continuing to walk. A few food highlights were a pizza slice, sushi eaten with a spoon, a can of cold coffee with milk as well as a couple of protein bars. Honey packets and bites of cheddar cheese allowed me to push through the final 4+ miles, which were done in the dark. I had to push myself, especially near the end as I wanted to stop when the light drained from the sky.
Today's section started near the Sunset Strip. I took a detour to walk it, where I came upon this clever window display, |
Walking the median trail along Santa Monica Blvd. |
More trail in the city |
Narrow shoulder & puddles makes for a challenge. |
High-rise apartment and hotel buildings make for different street life |
One of my meals, which fulfilled a couple of cravings & gave me a boost. |
Sunset Blvd climbing up. |
LA seems to be full of great architecture. |
On the 9th day of walking - the Pacific! |
One of the few stairways on this section. |
I caught the sun setting just in time. |
I'm looking forward to more ocean views in the coming days. |
It's hard to believe these stairs have been around for over 80 years. |
