Yeah, can be a bit depressing to go in those places on a bright sunny day in LA - but I can't really roam at night, so that's my only option. The rain makes it nice and cozy! In Honolulu, on the other hand, the mid-day is so f-ing hot, that's it great to go into those nice dark places, relax in the a/c, get scrubbed and rubbed, then explore other nice dark places...
