going to LA this weekend. woohoo. flyin in to lax tonight. gonna go party of course but wanna know what some stuff should i check out while down there?

Disneyland!

Just kidding.

Obviously, there's the mainstream tourist stuff amusement parks, move studios, Hollywood, Beverly Hills.

Although it's been a couple of years since I was last in LA I always liked driving the PCH up to Malibu. Last time I spent most of my time just driving around LA randomly. Although it's probably not noteworthy to most I really liked driving around the warehouse parts just outside of Downtown.

Squaremiles of nothing but warehouses and factories, very Bladrunneresque.

Palos Verdes is also good for a scenic drive. But I might just be saying that because I used to live there.

Los Angeles is huge. Too huge, in fact. There's so much stuff going on that you may just get lost in it and end up doing nothing.

Have fun!

Depends what you want to do.

I'd probably try to get some parts while you're here.

Try RRR Game in Gardena as an example.

I'd say hit up the beaches. BYO Vodka.
