Need new ideas... - 13/03/04 06:57 PM

Going to be in LA this week (Tuesday thru Saturday). Me and a co-worker doing some work stuff.

Already done the "drive around Hollywood, Valley, Pacific Highway" stuff.

Also, we won't be free until around 5-6pm each day.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

How about Beverly Hills, Universal Citywalk, Downtown Disney. The dsadvantage you have is that you will be available during LA rush hour and you will encounter traffic anywhere you go. Traffic will usually die down after 7-8pm depending on where you are at. Give me some ideas of what you want to do and I will give you some ideas of where you can go.

Buffalo is right... good suggestions & traffic is going to be a pain during those hours. You may also wanna try:
- Santa Monica Pier
- 3rd Street Promenade (which is near Santa Monica Pier) Restaurants/bars/specialty & exotic shops/theaters/street entertainers, etc.
- Old Town Pasadena (on Colorado Blvd) Restaurant/bars/specialty & exotic shops/theaters/home & clothing shops, etc.
- Long Beach off of Pine Blvd (aka THE PIKE) ... keep going all the way towards the ocean... it's passing Ocean Blvd. Brand new shopping center/entertainment area. There's also a Hooters on Pine Blvd a little north of that shopping ctr. I've only driven by this one so excuse me if I'm wrong: theaters/restaurants/arcade/specialty shops
- Hermosa Beach Pier/Strand - Restaruants/bars/few shops/Beach access/Comedy Magic Club South on Hermosa Ave
- Venice Beach
- Getty Museum - They're open late, parking is $5, admission is free and there are AWESOME views!
- Melrose - Restaurants/bars/specialty & exotic shops/freaks
- Belmont Shore in Long Beach - Restaruants/Bars/specialty shops

You may also wanna try LA Times for more info.

Is there anything specific you want to do?
