Then we set off adventuring into Santa Monica. Traffic was a little stupid at times and with the wind it wasn't especially pleasant so we had an early lunch, having skipped breakfast, and headed back into Los Angeles.
Then I had the bright idea to go to the Petersen Automotive Museum. Unfortunately they don't note on their website that you can't bring a backpack into the museum. I wasn't about to leave my camera in the car and they disclaimed responsibility for bags left in their care so screw them, we left but we did see an old flat-bed truck on the way out and I took pictures of it.

So, having given the Petersen Automotive Museum the finger, we decided to head back to the hotel for a little low-fat frozen yogurt and a siesta. For dinner we decided to see if we would get a table at Lucques, a new American restaurant of some renown.

Indoor patio seating at Lucques and a clear shot at the woman at the next table who was talking loudly about having her tubes tied. Was the a slutty signal?

Full and completely satisfied, we headed back to the hotel to try to get some sleep before repacking our belongings and heading to the airport in the morning.
