FC1 Western Ave. Stop 12: Bowling and bikinis

Park your car just about anywhere on Western Avenue and you'll find a photo opportunity. On the day after Christmas, it's easy to find parking and traffic isn't so bad, so this whole expedition was quite enjoyable. This, for example, might look like a Japanese pachinko parlor, but really it's a 24-hour bowling alley.

Across the street is Crabbby Kim's, a bar where the bartenders wear bikinis. The only time I ever went in there, the bikini-clad woman was sitting in a corner taking a cigarette break. Other than that it was a typical neighborhood dive. Not really a turn on.
