Glendale Galleria and Americana

Yo.

Outdoor malls are great. Romanticism comes to mind when architects plan to design this shit. When it comes down to nighttime urban shopping in these malls, especially in LA with The Grove and Americana, I feel a sense of something I can't explain. For sure.

Americana takes the cake for me. Something about glowing fountain shows and the unification of our generation with generations past makes me feel all tingly.

Despite of what Shadd said, who works at Boarders in the Glendale Galleria across the street, Americana trumps over Victoria Gardens, albeit considering the notion that Americana is about half the size of the reigning powerhouse of shopping of Rancho Cucamonga.

I realized after tonight that the more I experience LA and the surrounding areas, I fall more and more in love with the city and state of which I was born and raised. Olympic to Kerry. Ktown to West Covina. I will never forget my roots.
