Things to do in LA.

On a trip out to LA to pick up my fiance's car. We're driving back across the country to Tennessee in a few weeks, but would like suggestions on things to do while we are here. No basketball, please.

Strip clubs are fun. Bringing the fiance along means more attention from the strippers!

Venice Beach if you want some real culture shock!
Or DODGERS BABY!!
See if Griffith Park still has the laser show, it used to be pretty cool.
Go to Catalina Island on the express.
All depends on what blows your dress up and what you want to spend.

There is a nice little shopping district next to Universal called City Walk.

Lots of fun things to do there.

BTW, if you go to Universal Studios, they sell a limited number of express passes. I forget the exact name of it, but you practically walk right onto the rides instead of waiting in line. It's expensive, but you will go on many rides.

We did the Simpsons ride like 5 times. GREAT ride.

HAHA funny joke.

I would hit up Venice beach, Long Beach Aquarium, Santa Barbara is always fun to go walk around and have lunch, but that might be the opposite direction for you. Theres some nice smoke shops here too if your into that

But seriously LA is full of things to do. Depends on your budget and how much time you wanna spend doing it.

There is a great place South of LA you must visit. You absolutely must visit Watts......the best of what LA offers. A great residential neighborhood know for its cultural and friendly folks. But please dress appropriately.
