Getting around...

I have found the easiest way to get around LA and be able to make a few pit stops is by renting a car, it's possible to get a daily rental for under $99. 

It's the most practical option and also always you to spend as much time as you want in a specific location, one thing to remember is sort forget to pay for parking- most of the streets have parking meters, so just keep an eye out for them and make sure not to exceed your time limit.

Breakfast in Malibu.

Start your day with breakfast at the Malibu farm cafe that is situated at the end of the Malibu pier. Their food is amazing and you enjoy your breakfast over looking the ocean, what could be better than that?

Rodeo Drive 

A must see! Rodeo Drive is beautiful, perfect spot for some instagram shots too. Take some time to walk around and enjoy. If you are a fan of the Pretty Woman movie, a good thing to note is the Beverly Wilshire hotel from the movie is situated right there on the corner of Rodeo drive and Wilshire Boulevard.

Take a drive through Bel Air 

Take a drive through the beautiful streets of Bel Air and down sunset boulevard to see the Beverley Hills Hotel. The streets are all so picturesque and really give you that LA feeling.

LA Urban Lights

Urban Lights attraction at the Los Angeles County Art Museum, its 208 lamp posts. Great photo op and great to see all lit up at night.

Sunset at Santa Monica Beach

Santa Monica beach is the perfect spot to watch a beautiful sunset. The pier is also fun to walk around and see all the excitement going on.

Dinner at E.P & L.P

Finish your day off having a tasty dinner at asian fusion restaurant E.P & L.P in West Hollywood. It also has a great rooftop bar to have a drink and enjoy the views of LA!
