Where are some good places to visit in Los Angeles or anywhere in California?|142105

Please let me know the adress and the site if possible.
Thanks,

Wow, where to begin. It really depends on what interests you. There are tours at Universal Studios, Disneyland, Knots Berry Farm, The Queen Mary in Long Beach, explore Hollywood.

Personally I am a nature nut and hate tourist traps like that. Drive up to Lake Arrowhead or Big Bear, or Lake Tahoe area. I also enjoy hiking in Joshua Tree National Park by Palm Springs. (in the winter only) Go to Lone Pine California and drive up Mount Whitney, go to Death Valley.

California is such a diverse state when in comes to geography. Where else in the USA can you surf, snow ski and hike in the desert all in one day?

The pantageous theatre. Get tickets to a show if possible.

Hollywood Blvd. Just to walk up and down the streets is great fun. Looking at all the stars and stuff. It_s best to do it in the daytime. There are more weirdos at night. It_s actually alot of fun to see all the diffrent kinds of people walking along too. Most have really weird hairdos.

Angels stadium. Thats in Anaheim. I don_t know if they will be playing or not. But if they are, try to get tickets. You can buy some for cheap.

Richard Nixon Library. Thats in Yorba Linda. It_s actually the site where out president was born. I think he might have died there too. Not sure.

There are literally hundreds of things to do here in LA. Here is my list of ��must sees��. Visit as many as you have time for.:

Disneyland: The Happiest Place on Earth. Half a billion visitors can��t be wrong. #1 Destination.
Universal Studios: A theme park that grew out of a studio tour. #2 Destination.
Even if you don��t visit Disneyland or Universal Studios Tour, Downtown Disney District and Universal City Walk are very fun places to visit for shopping and eating. And they��re free to visit.

Hollywood: Enjoy the Walk of Fame, Entertainment Museum, Chinese Theatre and more. You can see a lot for free. The Hollywood _ Highland complex is AMAZING. It has lots of shops and restaurants, and the Kodak Theater (home of the Academy Awards). I also like the El Capitan theater, right across the street, where Disney shows their movies. And the Hollywood Bowl is a GREAT place to listen to concerts outdoors.

Rodeo Drive, 90210: Packed with exclusive shops, full of gawkers. They all came to enjoy the excess. Free, unless you intend to buy something.

Venice Beach: Los Angeles kitsch and over-the-top culture at its best. Here you_ll find Muscle Beach, street performers and tacky shops galore. Fun, VERY interesting, but I avoid it after dark, when it gets a little TOO interesting for my taste.

Santa Monica: Beach and Pier: Great beach scene and a classic seaside amusement park, complete with antique carousel that has been in a lot of TV and movies. (The Sting and _Three_s Company_ come immediately to mind). After visiting the pier, you can ride a bike south a couple miles to Venice Beach. Third Street Promenade - Downtown Santa Monica_s shopping promenade is often the scene of movie star-sightings. Just north of Santa Monica Pier.

Sunset Boulevard: Perhaps one of the world_s most famous streets, it began as a route between the stars_ posh neighborhoods and the Hollywood studios. It runs from downtown to the ocean, passing through the _Sunset Strip_ on its way.

Farmers Market and The Grove - A new shopping complex right next to a Los Angeles landmark, The Grove and Farmers Market coexist. Enjoy a movie or shopping, and then take the trolley to the Farmers Market for lunch or dinner. It is right next to CBS, so walk across the lot to see if they are taping _The Price is Right_. You might even get in.

Griffith Park - Home of the Los Angeles Zoo, Griffith Park Observatory, Travel Town, the Greek Theatre, and Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage.

Getty Museum - The Getty_s architecture is so beautiful that it keeps me fascinated. No matter whether you like their art or architecture better (or maybe you_ll just enjoy the view), the Getty is sure to please. Free.

Attend a TV taping - You can get free tickets at audiencesunlimited.com, tvtix.com, or see the booth at Universal City walk. It_s very interesting to see a show being taped. The most popular, by far, is the Tonight show. Check the NBC web site for all the details there.

Places to eat:
In-N-Out Burger: Multiple locations, best burger in LA, ask anyone.
Pink��s Hot Dogs: 709 N. La Brea, just north of Melrose. You might even see a celebrity. Maybe.
Tommy��s Chili Burgers: Look for the shack, an LA tradition. The original location is at Beverly _ Rampart, a couple miles west of downtown.
Canter��s Deli: 419 N. Fairfax, between Beverly _ Melrose. Near CBS, you might spot a celebrity.
Phillippe��s: 1001 N. Alameda. Great roast beef sandwiches. Near Union Station and Olvera Street. Watch the mustard, it��s hot.
The Pantry: Corner of Figueroa and 9th, downtown. Huge portions, they never close, GREAT steak and eggs.

Places to Stay:
Since LA is so spread out, there is no single place that is close to EVERYTHING. Most people who come here tend to stay in Hollywood, Santa Monica, or Anaheim. In Hollywood, I recommend the Orchid Suites, Hollywood Celebrity Hotel, or Holiday Inn Walk of Fame, all near Hollywood and Highland. Another one is the Best Western Sunset Plaza. In Santa Monica, the Holiday Inn Santa Monica is close to the pier and reasonably priced. In Anaheim, I recommend the Howard Johnson (HoJo) Anaheim, and the Candy Cane Inn. There is also a nice place in Burbank called the Best Western Media Center, very close to Warner, NBC, and Universal Studios.

Places to Shop:
Third Street Promenade, Santa Monica
The Grove, Los Angeles
Americana @ Brand, Glendale
Beverly Center, Los Angeles
Citadel Outlets, Commerce
Brea Mall, Brea
The Block at Orange, Orange
South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa
Fashion Island, Newport Beach
Santee Alley, Los Angeles

The Getty center, the Hollywood museum, and the key club

Pismo Beach!

What area of the Louisville Metro is best for relocating?|152324

Looking for some place safe, convenient, and a good school system is a must. Any suggestions?

In general, anywhere on the east side. As mentioned, St. Matthews area is nice, as are surrounding burbs. Jefferson County (Louisville) public schools are _OK_, although you have to pick and choose. Check out www.greatschools.net. The highest rated school district in the area is Oldham County, which is the next county over to the east of Louisville. Nice area there too, but a bit too far, too rural for my taste.

I love Louisville, born and breed there,... i dnt really think it matters where u live in louisville, crime is still going to happen.... but i love the st matthews area... and recently the lake forest area is quite nice as well

What is a good state to move to for great weather and a booming economy?|151257

Im born and raised out of Detroit,MI, but Im ready to move on. I want to move somewhere with beautiful weather and a great night life. Im still pretty young so affordable is key. I would prefer to be somewhere near water. So any suggestions would be very helpful.

North Carolina. Mild winters, great beaches on the Atlantic Ocean, ski resorts in the western mountains, NFL, NBA, NHL and great college sports. Very low unemployment.

You can find very affordable housing all up and down the coast in small towns and cities that are 10 to 25 miles inland. Of course, beachfront property is very expensive.

North or South Carolina

Washington :;; Then come To British Columbia for a good time...

Where is the best place to rent a cabin in Maine?|191006

A couple friends and I are planning a week trip to Maine on our college break the 3rd week of October. We was wondering where in Maine is the best place to rent a cabin? It would be nice to see the fall foliage, along with very tall pine trees on a lake and a abundance of Moose. Overall we are from North Carolina and would love to spend a week in Maine, any suggestions would be helpful.

hey,

here_s a nice place to find cabins for rent in maine

hope it helps :)

I agree with the short guy. Katahdin is great, and so is Acadia. If you really want to see a moose, northern Maine is the best spot for that, and Rangely. Moose isn_t guaranteed though. Rangely is probably good for foliage too. It_s a good, stereotypical town, like the idea you have of Maine.

the katahdin area is what you want.

I_m 18 years old now and a German citizen, and will be paying my own bills, apartment, and i contacted DMV, and they told me to change the EU drivers license after 6 months , to some state drivers license what i believe, since ill be staying there for at least 5 years, also because of Uni. I_m not wanting to move back to anywhere else. How will i gain residency in Arizona ?

if you want to stay in the US you will need to get your visa changed from student to permanent resident. then you can establish residency in Arizona.
