Coming soon to a city near you ...

So, you may have heard (because I assume that only my close friends actually read this) that I'm planning a little trip down south next month. When I say south, I mean it literally — we're going to San Francisco and Los Angeles. And we need help deciding what to do, where to go and what to see while we're down there. We already know who to see — our lovely friends, of course!

Having grown up in the heart of Silicon Valley, I have some idea of what to do in the Bay Area, but this recovering Californian has never been to LA! Or to this place! The horror.

So, if you have favorite SoCal spots, sights, restaurants or whatever, please send them my way!

The Museum of Jurassic Technology. Also Psychiatry Institute of Death Museum. MOCA was cool too.

Thanks for the tips, Jenny! I live Behind the Orange Curtain and I'm stoked to have some new places to visit in LA!

On the subject of off-beat places to visit in LA, there's a new(ish) CosPlay cafe (not sure how it compares to Tokyo) and for you Pulp Fiction fans, Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles.

A little further south, there's some fun shopping to be had on Retro Row in Long Beach, and while you're in the LBC, stop into the lovely aquarium.
