My office building just looks like a typical high rise on the way east towards Downtown. Ever since I started working there, I always saw escalators and stairs descending far underground. Last year, I finally got the chance to take the escalators down to take the Metro for the first time. In LA, I have always been skeptical of public transportation, so it was odd to me to actually see a subway system! I don’t even think that I knew that it even existed. Anyway, yesterday I took a trip down there again. I hope that the subway will one day extend to some other parts of LA that I frequent more! I appreciate great public transportation systems that I’ve experienced in many places around the world – LA isn’t quite there yet.
