After I have travelled to LA more that 24h, next challenge was to find a motel. I had booked a motel in advance cos I thought that I need to have some place to stay first night. Motel was located in Hemet, about 2hours drive from airport. I was told (many times) that public transport doesn't work in USA. But I couldn't take that without trying. And would have been waiste of money and time, because then need to take that car back to airport.
I started my way to city. I was menth to change to train but suprise suprise there wasn't any transport to Hemet after 6 o'clock. First bus would leave at 1 a.m. And it would drive 2h to wrong direction. Then would have to change to another bus which would leave at 9 a.m. My phone wasn't working. Laptop battery has run out...
I toppled at one corner in railway station. I was done and I thought I could sleep there. After a while guard game to kick out those who didn't have ticket. So I and all other homeless persons had to go out. Winos showed me where the nearest hotel is. I'm happy that I took a room and got some sleep.
I got to tell you, that it's amazing how much half an hour on internet changes your feeling. Let alone good conversation with some normal person. Walking to the place when you know where you are heading. Few coins in pocket so you are able to call. Even if you don't have any local numbers, calling home can feel like a mirracle. I think I don't need to mention what good sleeping does.
I put some pictures when things come little easier.
