Hilton Hotel LAX

checked in after short trip from airport. found the roof garden on the 3rd floor which is a smoking area. They also have pet access which is good to see. bought some postcards to send home and then discovered the elevators had died. Down 10 flights of stairs to get dinner. The elevators were still not working so I climbed up 10 flights of stairs. TV not working so I climbed down 10 flights of stairs, had a ciggy and saw the concierge. I wonder how much a chopper to the 10th floor will cost?????????????

On the plus side i did get to get up close and and personal with 2 Los Angeles fire trucks. Add that to the motor cycle cop I saw and I think day one has had some adventures
