For “Germans in LA” day Stefanie & Zeinab got to meet my long-time friend Ben, and new CSULB student Nele. First we went Downtown to check out the Grand Ave Arts “All Access” event with Ben.

BEN: Standing in all these lines is for chumps! Lets just have lunch.
ZEINAB: I prefer to work on my tan.
STEFANIE: I’m starving! We haven’t had a meal in almost an hour!
GLENN: Of course I can cut this little, tiny cupcake into 4 parts, no problem!
