    My very good friend Thomas from Germany staying with me for a couple weeks so I gave him the GIV Beach Tour Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach Hermosa Beach, and then we went to Palos Verdes checked out the lighthouse and the coast amazing all the beautiful houses we saw, and all the other nature things, flowers and animals. It never gets old to explore. Hope you enjoy this video.

My gf had a hip problem though that kept getting infected. What really scares me is the fact that I have a hip problem as well even on the same side which is crazy but my dad only started getting health problems with in the past like 6 months. Very strange but once it started I knew something was very wrong but I didn't expect it to be death. But thank you again
