Don't go to LA for the Views

I'm just gonna come out and say it, I hate LA. Now, I'm sure it has something to offer to some people, but I haven't found it. I have found smog, way too many people, traffic, garbage and too many interstates to keep track of. The one good thing they have is the track- the only indoor 250m in the US. Because of that, we come here to train quite a bit, and always stay in the same hotel. In all my trips to LA and the Hampton Inn, Carson, I've stayed on the same side of the hotel all but one time. The view? The 105, or the 110, or the 405 freeway- see, there are too many for me to keep track of, not that they're any different from each other anyway.
