I've been to Santa Monica pier, it was good fun. Venice Beach was just... weird. (Haha, really? My former flatmate would love that, she's obsessed with him as Sherlock). Haha, hiking through the state park where MASH was filmed? Wow, that is something else. XD

I would love to do that. Not sure when we'll actually be able to come over... money, time off etc. Bah! But hopefully soon! And then we would love to do some tame Scotty stalking ;)
