Undercover Drawings in California Hostels

I stayed at a few different hostels while in California these past few weeks.  In this photo, my wife and I had just been given a couple of beds in San Diego and I really wasn't thrilled with the prospect of spending the night there.  It was a room for 4 but it looked like about 50 people were staying in it and it had this horrible stench of dead raccoons and wet socks.....oh, and in that mess I also found a black marker.  Without asking for permission I made a big drawing on one of the walls.  I think it made me feel a bit better about the situation and as soon as I was done they came to tell us that we were being moved to a nicer room.  Karma perhaps?

I then decided to continue my little under cover project while at another hostel in Venice Beach. This one had to be done really quickly on a locker right before checking out of our room, but I think it's kinda neat.

Note: both hostels were actually pretty awesome and I'd stay there again!
