“Honey don't worry... keep peddling it'll just be a little longer and we'll be out of here” A collection of reviews for Venice Beach and boardwalk submitted to Trip Advisor and Yelp! Includes the collection of articles on “How the tent city ruined night time beach access for everyone.” Compiled by Derek Harbaugh January 6th, 2015 1 “Fun, but watch out at night” Reviewed January 6, 2015 NEW The boardwalk has lots of colourful shops and cafes - we had a great lunch at the Venice Ale House (ordered a coconut water which came in a real coconut, lovely surprise!) We stayed in Marina del Rey and walked through Venice to get to Santa Monica - it was a fairly long walk (around 4 miles) but we really enjoyed taking in the scenery on foot. However, after the sun set we didn't feel safe and witnessed quite a few fights and confrontations going on. Beware! Visited September 2014 “Mixed feelings” Reviewed January 5, 2015 NEW I was saying at a hotel close to venice beach. The boardwalk has some nice shops and eateries , along with many street vendors. It can has performers, tattoo artists, street artists vying for your attention and that can be fun. Although there are druggies and beggars too so need to a bit careful with your belonging. its a colorful place :). Visited August 2014 Pretty much a tourist trap and very gritty. As I walked the esplanade we witnessed several drug deals and passed multiple people and groups smoking drugs. Not very family friendly. Lots of touristy shops and nice looking cafes. Very mixed crowd from trendy looking café to homeless and also lots of skater teens smoking drugs. Would not hurry to visit here again. Visited December 2014 Los Angeles still tries to promote Venice but the place is an embarrassment. They try to pull off the Portland Weird vibe along with mini San Francisco but the place is a dump and most locals no to stay away. I dare you to hang out in Venice after dark. Hopefully enough tourist will avoid this place and LA will catch on to clean it up. You will be asked for $ constantly by the aggressive homeless. Street performers will aggressively try to get $ out of anyone who stops to watch. The beaches in Los Angeles are depressing...they really are. If you want a better beach experience that involves the pure spirit of surfing and peace try Huntington Beach in Orange County. Bolsa Chica State Beach is attached with excellent bird watching. Or go to Balboa Island Boardwalk/Newport Beach...beautiful peaceful vibe. “Wow! The Tiajuana of California beaches!!” Reviewed December 7, 2014 2 And with that title I would have to give the nod to TJ. Went on a Saturday afternoon and walk the length of the boardwalk freak show. My wife and I's consensus was "don't want our kids around here!" And our kids are 21-29. From the homeless, to the pot smokers and "carny" types this place literally stinks. The weather was great, so I can't imagine coming here in the summer when it's hot and more people are there.....the smell would really be awesome. California has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world and this area is a 'scab' on that beauty. We thought we would see some interesting artist and vendors but it was more along the lines of the worst carnival carnies and bums you can imagine! I counted 4 Pot prescription booths, head shops(which I thought where illegal?). There where no real artist there.......just some whit guy trying to rap and another group trying to get old whit guys to walk like pimps. Kind of felt dirty when we left. I guess it takes all kinds and if you want to see a bunch of dregs and freaks then this is the place for you. I would not recommend going and keep your kids away! Just a short drive up the coast to Santa Monica Pier or south to Manhattan beach is where you can enjoy California beaches not ruined by this blight. Visited December 2014 Don't be there as the suns starts to set but be there before that.” Reviewed December 3, 2014 I've been here a few time but wanted to take my wife and little boy to see the famous boardwalk. We took the bus from our Airport hotel and the bus ride was inexpensive and interesting. We arrived a bit late in the afternoon and settled in for a great meal at one of the any cafe's and then walked along the boardwalk passing the man on the Blades, a guy laying on broke glass, young me playing 4 on 4 basketball and of course Muscle Beach where a few muscled up boys were trying to charge for a photo. I told them to get out of my shot as they were spoiling the equipment. It still has pzazz but getting on dark it begins to take on that sinister side. It is an area known for drugs and that is their time. Easy. Get the early, enjoy the atmosphere and get going. “Checked off bucket list & wouldn't go back” Reviewed December 3, 2014 Prior to our California trip, we watched shows, read books, and listened to advice of the places we absolutely shouldn't miss seeing. So on day 1, we headed to the Venice Beach Boardwalk. WOW. Eye opening is an understatement. We had a bad/scary adventure with parking but that's probably our fault for not researching ahead of time and obviously having a big tourist stamp on our heads! Luckily our rental car wasn't destroyed and none of our belongings were stolen. Just beware of leaving your keys with someone who will park/squeeze your car into a little lot. I'm still amazed that none of the homeless people have figured out that the guys who park the cars leave the driver's windows down and the keys over the visor. That's really safe! Yikes! The boardwalk is filled with souvenir shops, restaurants, artists, and street performers. It is a 3 very busy atmosphere with all different types of people. Warning: the locals set up stands and sell homemade crafts but they do NOT want you to take pictures. They will become confrontational if you do and they have signs saying how much they charge to take pictures. So be careful! Another warning: I knew the boardwalk would be filled with street performers and I knew they'd probably have buckets for tips. But what I didn't know is this....if you stand there and watch a performance, they will throw out a specific dollar amount that you owe when the show is finished ($20 PER PERSON). One show we watched even went as far as to say that having no cash isn't an excuse cause you can use your credit card and get cash out of the ATM right behind them. Also, there wasn't a tip bucket. Instead, they literally walked from one person to the next collection money. Not a good or safe atmosphere! There was a freak show on the boardwalk that you could go into for an admission fee. No joke. They had midgets and a bearded lady sitting outside trying to attract tourists to pay to come inside. We didn't take the bait. We looked at several of the little boardwalk food places and even the biggest restaurants, but none really grabbed our attention (at least not both of us were craving the same type of food). Overall, we spent several hours here walking the boardwalk and while I'm glad we can mark it off the bucket list, it will NOT be on the list of places I'd like to ever visit again. “Getting dirty” Reviewed November 29, 2014 I come to Venice since 40 years and it was never so dirty and full with apparently happy homeless people. They might have found the plant to make all horror disappear, otherwise it is incomprehensive why they stay in droves. If you want to see the sea go to Santa Monica instead. Visited November 2014 “Interesting but depressing” Reviewed November 15, 2014 I would certainly not want to take children here. It felt very dirty no maybe where you are on the broadwalk. I was depressed when leaving just to know so many people are in dire straights even if it is by choice or illness. Knew things were a little different when there were police ever few steps along the broadwalk. Visited November 2014 “Still a hippie boardwalk” Reviewed November 8, 2014 Doesn't look like much gas changes over the past 40-50 years. Still looks like something from the 1960-70's. I would not want to go there after dark - scary enough during the day. I would NOT recommend, unless you like that sort of life. Definitely better beach boardwalks 4 “the sights, the sounds and the smells---” Reviewed October 31, 2014 10.30.2014 -- seedy, shabby but fascinating if you can stomach the smell of marijuana whafting out of the numerous Marijuana clinics. But the most major troubling social aspect is the sheer number of homeless people about, amongst their possessions -- some even with multiple pet dogs in tow. Many of the street artists seemed to be living in squalor too on the streets. So sad and so humbling to see. “Lots of Homeless People” Reviewed October 27, 2014 It was a beautiful beach, lots of rentals, great restaurants, very congested and lots of homeless people though.

We had made reservation for about a dozen island-hopping flights on Oct. 14th, but unfortunately the next day Palau Micronesia Airways was not able to issue the tickets, as the flight from Palau to Darwin had suddenly been suspended. With some Good Luck, we could thereafter find a cheap ticket from Montreal to Melbourne directly. On Oct. 27th, 2004 we got picked up at 05:30 h in the morning, to fly to Melbourne via Los Angeles. Already in Montreal, we went through US customs, after we had received the boarding-passes for our three flights end- destination Melbourne. We didn't get bored during the 11 hours we had to wait in Los Angeles for our connection flight. As US airports don't have transit areas, we could walk freely around the big building and even leave it. When making inquiries about flights to Micronesia at the desk of Continental Airways, we got to talk to a very nice lady. She had been there herself and she spontaneously called in some other staff that came from Guam and Samoa. We stood there, talking for more than an hour and later had some light snacks as we had had before. On the 14 hours non-stop flight to Syndey, United Airlines crossed the dateline and so we lost one precious holiday..

    Henry Thoreau and the Origins of the American Tourist Industry

    HENRY THOREAU AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF 1 OUR AMERICAN TOURIST INDUSTRY “The vagabond, when rich, is called a tourist.” — Paul Richard, French diplomat, AU JAPON 226 BCE The island of Rhodes was hit by a strong earthquake, and the Colossus of Rhodes, erected a couple of generations earlier, snapped at its weakest point, the knee. Although the Rhodians would immediately be contacted by their friend Ptolemy III Eurgetes of Egypt with an offer to pay everything it would require to restore this bronze image of Helios the sun god, when the Rhodians consulted an oracle, the oracle forbade any such re-erection. They therefore declined their friend’s kind offer and, for almost the next millennium, the statue would be lying in ruins. Tourists would still be able to visit the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, despite the fact that this particular wonder lay in ruins. According to Pliny the Elder, few of these tourists could “make their arms meet round the thumb.” 1.

    Kachemak Bay, Alaska: an Exploration of People and Place

    Kachemak Bay, Alaska: An Exploration of People and Place Exhibit Evaluation I had not realized the commitment and value of each individual to the community. -Visitor Prepared for the Pratt Museum by Visitor Studies Services 2004 Kachemak Bay, Alaska: An Exploration of People and Place Exhibit Evaluation by Wendy Meluch of Visitor Studies Services, 2004 Abstract Extensive research of the exhibit, Kachemak Bay, Alaska: An Exploration of People and Place shows it to be popular and effective with visitors on every communication and affective goal set forth in the Exhibit Master Plan. Research also finds that Community Collaborators who helped to create exhibit elements found the experience deeply meaningful and satisfying, meeting every desired cognitive, affective and behavioral outcome established for the collaboration programs. Pre- and post-test surveys of the exhibit as a whole, and specific elements in it, and two observational studies in the exhibit involved nearly 600 visitors to the Pratt Museum. In most studies, Travelers and Area Residents used distinct survey instruments and are considered separately for analysis. Over 30 Community Collaborators responded to lengthy questionnaire forms, sharing deeply personal experiences and revelations about their participation. ii Acknowledgements Just as the Kachemak Bay Exhibit could only be birthed by extensive collaboration among many talented and smart individuals, so this research was born of the cooperative efforts of many capable people. Betsy Webb, Curator of Collections at the Pratt Museum and wearer of many other hats as well, was instrumental to every phase of this research. The hundreds of visitor surveys could not have been conducted without Gale Parsons and Shannon Riley, and their careful guidance of the Museum’s summer interns.

    Post-Presidential Speeches • Fort Pitt Chapter, Association of the United States Army, May 31, 1961 General Hay, Members of the Fort Pitt Chapter, Association of the United States Army: On June 6, 1944, the United States undertook, on the beaches of Normandy, one of its greatest military adventures on its long history. Twenty-seven years before, another American Army had landed in France with the historic declaration, “Lafayette, we are here.” But on D-Day, unlike the situation in 1917, the armed forces of the United States came not to reinforce an existing Western front, but to establish one. D-Day was a team effort. No service, no single Allied nation could have done the job alone. But it was in the nature of things that the Army should establish the beachhead, from which the over-running of the enemy in Europe would begin. Success, and all that it meant to the rights of free people, depended on the men who advanced across the ground, and by their later advances, rolled back the might of Nazi tyranny. That Army of Liberation was made up of Americans and Britons and Frenchmen, of Hollanders, Belgians, Poles, Norwegians, Danes and Luxembourgers. The American Army, in turn, was composed of Regulars, National Guardsmen, Reservists and Selectees, all of them reflecting the vast panorama of American life. This Army was sustained in the field by the unparalleled industrial genius and might of a free economy, organized by men such as yourselves, joined together voluntarily for the common defense. Beyond the victory achieved by this combined effort lies the equally dramatic fact of achieving Western security by cooperative effort.

THE DAVE BRUBECK QUARTET “TIME OUTTAKES” is an alternate version of the masterful TIME OUT 1959 LP, with the seven tracks heard for the first time in crisp, different versions with a bonus track and studio banter. The album’s “Take Five” is the biggest selling jazz single ever, and hearing this in different form is downright thrilling. On LP and CD. Also smooth jazz reigns supreme with a CD release of a newly discovered live performance from sax legend GEORGE COLEMAN. “IN BALTIMORE” is culled from a 1971 performance with detailed liner notes and rare photos.
