Top 10 Things To Do In Los Angeles
6 Disneyland
Has to be done. Unless you have a serious aversion
to large mice this has to be on your list of things to do.
7 Manhattan Beach
If you can see it you should. Winter and LA beaches do not have
a particularly deep or meaningful relationship. On a good day -
Wow! Sight to behold. Pretty? It aint pretty, its gorgeous. The
pier is lovely, aquarium is a little little but engaging, you can
also engage in some ball volleying, take in the sea breeze and stroll
away some of day into a coffee shop and shop and eat and talk and
be alive in the sun.
The Manhattan Beach challenge as you might expect is to find parking.
You probably won’t be the only one who decided today was the
day to hit the beach. A strategic parking strategy is needed –
go north, hunt, seek and prosper with a confined empty space. Don’t
forget to bring change for the meter.
8 The Queen Mary
Whilst not as big as the modern giants that glide the oceans the
old queens have an elegance and grace that it is hard to match.
If you are lover of romance and history or even if romance has become
history you’ll still love the old boat.
You can go for a do it yourself guided tour, go on a guided guided
tour or go on a spiritedly ghostly, guided tour.
If the ghosts, or your vivid imagination, don’t keep you
awake you can sleep and dream of dark handsome mysterious someone
at the Hotel Queen Mary. Deluxe Stateroom or a Royalty Suite are
pricey at best but they are the best and you are sleeping with Royalty.
The Queen Mary resides at Long Beach.
9 Knott's Berry Farm
Rock n Roll with over 165 of the wildest thrilliest thrill rides
on the West Coast.
Hunt down the Boardwalk for the extremely extreme.
Small children may feel less overwhelmed at Camp Snoopy.
The park is heightest as height limits apply to most of the rides.
Expect to have to queue, attachable hats and sunscreen is recommended
as sunstroke and sunburn are not. Skip the chicken unless you are
very hungry.
10 Six Flags Magic Mountain
Scary stuff, at least for the adults. Take the ups, downs, twisting
all round experience of a roller coaster that seemingly defies the
laws of physics.
Magic Mountain is more than your average play thing. Long queues
testify to its popularity and relatively young family unfriendliness.
Treat for your teenager or the teenager deep in you. Ride across
the park on the metro or park train to improve the quality of your
scary experiences.
Six Flags Magic Mountain
26101 Magic Mountain Parkway
Valencia, CA 91355
(661) 255-4100
Mid to late afternoon is good time to go during summer. You just
might feel the urge for a drink afterwards.
