OMG how random is that! My boyfriend and I just booked a trip to LA for Spring Break too!! But we're just going all for fun ha. We've never been either and we're so excited! I have a relative that lives there but so far she hasn't had many suggestions on things to do. If you hear of exciting things to do there...besides the beach...post another blog, I'd love to find out more things. Thanks!! Hope you guys have a great trip!

I am taking my college age daughter and her friend on their spring break, and looking to turn them loose part of the time (they are not 21 yet). If you have any suggestions or ideas of unique things, please advise. They both model and love to shop and do anything celebrity related. One of them is thinking of transferring to Cal State Fullerton, so we will be checking that out.

BE CAREFUL, YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE, IT'S PARADISE! MAKE SURE TO GO TO MUSTACHE MONDAYS IN DOWNTOWN @ CHARLIE O'S @ THE ALEXANDRIA HOTEL

As a native from Los Angeles, may I suggest of course; Down town Disney, The "Block" in orange county, Universal City Walk, The Exposition Rose Garden for breath taking pictures. Manhattan Beach or Venice Beach. For shopping; South Coast Plaza or the Glandale Galleria. For dirt cheap deals, the Down town LA alley's. The list is endless. You can go skiing, surfing, hiking, just about anything you want to do. Ask question...I can help. Have fun!!!!!
