Here are my top 5 tips on Los Angeles 1) Be prepared for mad driving conditions. Driving on the huge 7-lane freeways is a great experience but takes a bit of getting used to. The main thing is to plan where you are going before you set out - the signs clearly show interconnecting roads and destiantions bu8t you don't want to be fiddling with maps as you drive 2) Don't miss Universal Studios. This is great fun theme park for all ages. Very young kids may prefer Disneyland but for anyone else this has more thrills and more interest. The T3 ride - a 3-D combinations of film and actors is fantastic. 3) Hollywood is good fun. Go on a tour of the stars homes which is full of gossip. You may just see lots of gates and driveways but it gives you a feel for the town 4) Catch a movie. You can't do to the city of Hollywood and not see a movie and the cinemas are amazingly impressive. We went to the ones in Universal City and were suitably impressed with the size of the screen and quality of the sound. Plus they are pretty cheap 5) If you are brave, you don't need to pre-book accommodation. Any motel has a free newspaper (or at the airport) filled with vouchers for heavily discounted accommodation. Five minutes reading this and in a call box will save you a lot of money
