In Los Angeles you MUST go to the Placita Olvera, seriously, in Olvera Street of course.

The real U.S. is there: Mariachi, good Mexican food, nice people, and
lots of colorfull stuff.

-Allways have some dental floss with you. It's strong, small and light, and has about a 1000 uses.
-Buy yourself an Aussie hat or something and allways wear it. People are much friendlier to tourists in general, and it helps if they can see your'e a tourist.

That's not true, London is about as safe as you can expect any City with Millions of occupants to be. Besides, tourists out number locals 5-1 anyway...
