To the mall


We did exchange names, we already knew about their faces thanks to internet but it's good to feel it for real... But we just cannot realise what's happening right now, and we don't want to... we pack everything in the van, we take our seats and watch Gilberto getting lost in LA! Actually we did not even notice we were lost cause this is city we don't belong to, and we know nothing about, and it's only question of neonlights and stores, food and gasoline, Nicolas and I start to feel disgust for LA!

And the freeway... 8 lanes, too many cars, and we're so tired, the others fall asleep, i talk a bit with fernando and then i fall asleep too, but we're reaching San Diego and we must stop to buy sleeping bags... We stop at Wall Mart, the American dream! You can almost buy everything there... We get our sleeping bags and some drinks, and we're on the way to Tijuana... Excellent driver!
We get to the border, notice the wall of shame and have a green light but a customer ask us to stop, but it only takes few seconds and we're in Tijuana, but it's night so we'll see more of the city tomorrow
