Day 3 part 1: Woke up with my knee screaming at me to not use it... insanely agonizing. So I popped a heavy pain reliever and ignored it again 
lol. So after I feel better and am able to walk Jamze and I call a cab to go see the ocean for the first time! I was really excited! So... the cab driver shows up and he says "where you go?" and we said "we'd like to go to the closest beach but do you know of any good chinese restaurants along the way?" he says "ok I know good place"... 30 dollars later we find ourselves in the middle of Chinatown with no restaurant in sight lol so we got to walking trying to find a place but everything looked pretty... shitty... after about an hour of walking we finally settle for this place called Chinese Friends... and by this time my knee has decided "Pain or not... I quit!" and I was having trouble walking... so despite my extreme want to see the ocean I decided it would be best to abandon it and head back to the hotel. So I won't get to see the ocean this visit but I'll be back soon... I just want to be able to participate in class tonight! So heads up to people... Traffic is crazy out here... I personally don't feel confident driving out here so we didn't rent a car. The bus system is damn confusing... we tried and failed... so we went with cab rides... the down side to this is cabs are expensive as balls out here. But, everything has been definitely worth it... Tonight will be my last night I am able to train at HQ because it turns out the only plane we can catch in order for me to get back in time on friday to pick up my son leaves tomorrow at 2 o'clock... but Three days at HQ has been a dream come true and I will definitely be coming back!
