    A ballgame at Dodger Stadium is a LOT of fun. Don't wear Giants gear.

    Try to find the parking lot where Jim Rockford's trailer was parked in Malibu.

    Drive slowly through Compton with the windows down and "Sweet Home Alabama" playing at full volume.

    This is very helpful. Gracias. I'm trying to convince my girl to skip work and her trip home to come out-- she'd prolly enjoy this so much. Damnit.

    I was going to suggest masturbating on the beach, and touring their jail.

    Great itinerary. I would add a few things:

    Dodger game is a great idea.

    Hollywood Blvd. near Mann's Chinese - fun to see the hand prints in cement, the Walk of Fame, and the kooks.

    The Getty is incredible if you like art museums.

    Eat Deli at Nate and Al's and cruise around Rodeo / Beverly Hills. This is also near The Grove and the Tar Pits.

    You really have to have a car to do it right. Stay off of the santa Monica freeway and cruise up and down Olympic instead.

    Yeah, Dodgers games are cool. Kind of a bitch to get there though with the traffic. But weather is beautiful.

    I can't stand Hollywood Blvd, to me, its the worst of LA all in one. Just tourist hell. Some people may want the photo ops, its just too many damned tourists.

    Nate and Al's is pretty good and campy. The food isn't the greatest, but its very campy. It is accessible, but I prefer Langer's (kinda ghetto though) or Canter's as far as Delis go. Rodeo Drive kind of blows. the only thing to really do is take a pic in front of Bijan's Yellow Bugatti.

    If you're a fan of the movie "Swingers", you have to go to the Dresden Room in Los Feliz and see Marty and Elayne perform. They are classic LA and they are getting up there in years so who knows how much longer they'll be around.

    If you're into cars, definitely go to the Peterson Automotive Museum. I went last week, its closing in October for a year to totally re-do it. They had dope car displays, the Vault was even better which I didn't go into, I think they had saddam husseins car.

    Wilshire and FAIRFAX around the corner from LACMA. The remodel looks iconic.
