With the porn industry threatening to turn its naked back on the Valley forever, it's good to know LA's tourism industry is on the upswing. With 26.9 million people visiting the city last year, 2011 saw a 4.2 percent increase from the previous year. If you've noticed many tall, good-looking, blond people hanging off of double-decker buses, they're most likely Australian, reports NBC4. Australia sent more overseas visitors to LA than did any other country last year, though Chinese travelers are hot on their trail. [NBC4]
