In this Travel Bug Robert episode, Robert travels to downtown Culver City, a neighborhood of Los Angeles. LA is a sprawling urban area, but downtown Culver City is one of those rare places in Los Angeles where you can walk to multiple places without driving. From the restaurants to the coffeeshops to the movie theater, It's a veritable pedestrian oasis. Of course, you have to drive to get here, but this is still LA. And the Sony Pictures studiosformerly MGM Studiosare right next to downtown, so you always remember why this arid desert of Southern California thrives the way it does. If it weren't for the entertainment industry out here, it would just be the desert without the oasis, pedestrian or not.
