The smells of the city.

New York and LA's smells are similar to London. Petrol and diesel fumes, hot sweaty commuters, unwashed homeless people...all really rather grim.

However LA also has a fried food takeaway smell to it, there are more fast food eateries and drive throughs in California than we have ever seen in our life, these however are a way of life to the Americans here, resulting in obesity...but that's whole new story!

Another similarity is the smell of Marijuana...cannabis, weed, pot or skunk....that last one Skunk is what California smells of! At first we thought a lot of people must smoke this drug in the suburbs of LA (similar to NY) as the pungent smell surrounds the streets in the early evenings...but we were soon told by joy that that smell is actually Skunks!





Another animal in their wildlife which to us is just a character in films!
