Hollywood????

Hey,

Im from the UK and am coming over to LA for the first time ina couple of weeks. Anyone got any advice on Hollywood and what is Hot and what not?

Any good places you can suggest any advice appreciated lads!

Well, first off you comming with family or friends?

Well me and my girl freind to be exact staying just of Sunset boulevard in a Motel called Super 8. Then driving from there to Sanfransisco. Not sure where to go en route either we wanna drive up the coast. Just never been before man.

go to south central it beutiful, great hospitality, ull fit right in

specifically watts or engelwood

well don't espect too much from the super 8 motel.Not god awful but not the four seasons ether heh.I would make sure to walk hollywood blvd to see the walk of fame and all the great shops.There are some nice head shops their too!Your girl might like to see the Kodak theatre ( that's where the Academy awards are held anually ).I recommend you go to the corner of Hollywood and Vine to see the capital records building.It's old but cool.ALso the Griffith observitory has a great view of Hollywood/L.A.at night. You can see the whole area including the L.A. skyline.Nice make-out spot.

You could make the short drive to Beverly Hills and show your girl Rodeo Drive.Girls always seem to like seeing that area.Universal Studios theme park is pretty nice, you can get the tram ride through all the movie sets and stuff if you like that kind of thing.There are a million clubs to party at in that area- I would just head out and live dangerously and club hop for an evening.

Before heading to San Fransisco I recommend you come to my neck of the woods ( Orange county ) and experience the beach lifestyle for a day or 3.Visit Main street in huntington beach, it is all bars and restaraunts and a hell of a good time.It's right there on the beach.Check out the H.B. pier and the Newport beach pier as well.

If you and your girl like rollercoasters and stuff I would recommend you hit Magic Mountain, Knott's Berry Farm, or Disneyland.Well worth the time and money.

San Fransisco is a beautiful city,Check out Golden Gate Park, and walk across the Golden Gate bridge with a camera.Also some great Museums- Art,Natural history, etc.

That's about all I can think of at the moment, I'll post anything If I remember something.You can stop by my place and I'll get ya nice and baked

LOL. Cheers man thats some excellent on the ground good advice. Many thanks. Its my first time in the States as well so its going to be a complete new thing to us. Thanks for your kind words!

hey man but dont judge our country by the people in LA

no offense to people in LA but

I am gonna hire a Mustang and taking in good few stops in ten days up the West Coast. I'm from Manchester and know what citys are like. Crazy beasts at times!

go see the the greet redwwod trees.

Where are they please? I reallhy want to see them, I 'm well into tree hugging when wrecked! Where are they please?

Where are they mate?

look it up

Gah I can't believe I forgot...Pier 39 in S.F. . There is an area with hundreds of sea lions right by the street,lots of great shops and stuff. and a homeless guy that hides in the bushes and jumps out and scares people ...

Don't listen to Cinci, the places he's telling you to go are poor urban black/hispanic areas with high rates of violence and crime.
If you want to see the ghetto go for it.

Cheers man I kind of guessed that Cinci guy was taking the piss out of me.Iv seen boyz intha hood.. Such a shame that some people insist on being rude and unaccomadating. Thanks for your advice the Observartory view in Hollywood and the headshops sound awesome and also the pier 39 is defo on my list the Giant Redwoods are north of Sanfransisco so we might not have time to see them but im well into tree hugging. We goto Wales most years for a weekend and get wrecked and hug trees...Im 28 so should know better but is is mighty calming..not as calming as a pipe of sweet mj but still good. Cheers man. You ever go to UK I'll repay the favour. CHeers!
