Buenos dĆas! Hoy os traigo algunas imĆ”genes de mi visita a Santa MĆ³nica y Venice, dos zonas en la costa de Los Ćngeles de lo mĆ”s agradables para pasar el dĆa y disfrutar del sol.
Good morning! Today I am sharing some pictures from my visit to Santa Monica and Venice, two areas in Los Angeles coast that are really nice to spend the day and enjoy the sun.
Santa MĆ³nica tiene el icĆ³nico muelle sobre el que hay una noria y otras actividades de ocio, me recuerda bastante a otros similares como el de Ocean City, Conney Island o San Francisco. Tiene la noria, un carrusel, camas elĆ”sticas, restaurantes y puestos con souvenirs para turistas. Es un sitio super animado.
Santa Monica has the iconic wheel on the pier and other leissure activities, it reminds me of similar ones like Ocean City, Conney Island or San Francisco. It has a wheel, a merry go round, trampolines, restaurants and souvenir stalls for tourists. The place has a great ambiance.
La playa es amplia, hay un montĆ³n de bicis y patinadores, y la puedes recorrer hasta llegar a la zona de Venice.
The beach is large, there are plenty of bikers and skaters, and you can walk all the way to Venice.
El paseo marĆtimo de Venice estĆ” lleno de restaurantes y tiendas de ropa playera, estudios de tatuajes y piercings, patinadores... Me lo esperaba bohemio con encanto pero, salvo algĆŗn restaurante, es un poco cutre y el ambiente un poco agobiante.
Venice boardwalk is full of restaurants and beach wear shops, tatoo and piercing studios, skaters... I expected it to be bohemian in a charming way but, aside from a few restaurants, it is kind of seedy and overcrowded.
Sin embargo, la zona de los canales tiene mucho encanto y es bastante tranquila, ideal para pasear e ir viendo las diferentes casitas de distintos estilos, cada una con su barca y su patio como sacado de Pinterest!
On the other hand, the channel area is really charming and quiet, perfect for a stroll, enjoying the view of different style houses, with their boats outside, and their patios that look taken out of a Pinterest board!
