In between Hollywood, Universal Studio’s and the myriad of other tourist traps that LA had to offer I managed to get some diving in with some great local divers. Word had spread that we were in town and were looking for people to dive with, the response from everyone in California was overwhelming, true spearo hospitality.
Unfortunately Jess had picked up a nasty chest infection which stopped her diving this leg of the trip, I was gonna to have to go solo.
