HQ trip! Couple ?'s please help

[Gerrit Butler]

Okay guys so it looks like i will be in Hollywood 10/30 through 11/4, and i just had a couple questions.

1. what are some good hotels within walking distance of legends? I was looking at getting a room at the Hollywood Hotel. Any info in this area would be much appreciated.

2. Considering i am going to be making it to ALL the BJJ classes morning and night. Is it going to be "safe" for me to walk to my hotel from legends at 11pm ish in the evening? Remember i am from alaska and we dont have to worry about walking in any areas at anytime.

3. Is there going to be classes on oct 31st? because if there is not and i am going to miss out on 2 classes in my trip, i will just move it back a week so i can make as many classes as i can.

I just want to say that I am so excited that I am going to acually be training with all my 10th planet brothers and sisters that me and my wife are looking into moving closer to a 10th planet so i can train.

Any other info from you guys would be great. Please keep in mind I have never really been out of the state of Alaska so this is going to be a experience for me.

Not sure about hotels but hostels nearby are disgusting! I'd never go back again lol.
Walking during the day is fine. At night I've never had any problems but the area is a bit sketchy. I was taking the bus on Santa Monica waiting by the bus stop you see many crazies. But then again I'm from NZ and L.A is scary as fuck by yourself at night

I think Dawna should work on a place to stay for all the pilgrims! It's always a struggle and it would be cool to stay under the same roof while training. I've been lucky enough to stay at some friends but having some sort of rio connection type of housing for HQ would be fucking awesome! Just saying Dawna *wink wink*

Yeah, Hollywood at night isn't what I'd call "family friendly". lol

Are you going to the bus system in LA is not that great. Personally, I'd think about renting/buying/borrowing a bike while you're there. I know that there is a Day's Inn that's decent in Thai Town, which is not that far on a bike, but I'm sure there are some others within biking distance. I'd say that's your best best!

Good luck on your trip!

It's been brought up before Froggy, I'll try & put some info together

If you happen to be a member of a certain Salvadoran street gang, you should feel very at home walking around HQ at night these days. :-)
