How to see LA in one day

Have two friends in town and nominate yourself tour guide and taxi driver.

Two of my best friends in the world were in town this weekend. Andra, my HS friend, and Heather, my college/NYC friend. Andra for vaca and the ECHS Concert, Heather for work.

11:00 AM - Andra and I go down to the Main Street Farmer's Market in Santa Monica/Venice to kill time until Heather gets approval on an edit.

12:15 - Pick up Heather at the Regent Beverly Wilshire, the hotel where Pretty Woman takes place.

12:45 - Arrive at Runyon Canyon, at the foot of the Hollywood Hills. Hike. for two hours. In the desert. Panoramic views of the city from heights of and above the Hollywood sign. Yum. This is why I moved to LA.

3:30 - Eat lunch at the Farmer's Market at the Grove.

5:00 - 7:00 - Relax, shower, nap, and revive at 10835 La Grange. Introduce out-of-state friends to neighbors. Out-of-state friends amazed at concept of friendly neighbors.

7:30 - Dinner at Baha Cantina in Marina del Ray. Ran into Gabe. Of course we had to have a run in. Update on the Delts is that Ryan has a throat infection and Jeff hates LA because he has no friends. Gabe was by himself. Heading to karaoke. Of course.

8:30 - Drive Andra back to ECHS concert coordinator friend Joe's in Lawndale/Manhattan Beach.

9:30 - Drive Greaux back to the RegBevWil in Beverly Hills.

10:00 - Collapse in my apartment and blog. Okay, watch Entourage, and then blog. Because there is nothing more quintessentially LA than Entourage, except perhaps The Comeback, its sad, pathetic, embarrassing aunt.
