The Getty houses quite a collection of styles and eras. The buildings and sprawling grounds are beautiful as well. Take a mid museum break and grab a cup of coffee and a pastry at their outdoor cafe.

The Getty Villa houses an exceptional collection of statuary from Greco-Roman to Degas. Nice views of the ocean along the PCH Hwy make a great drive to the museum.

"Old Los Angeles" Historic landmark. This is the first street in LA, where it all started. It's a Mexican marketplace with traditional everything and lots of great food and margaritas. Take the metro rail to Union Station. Walk to Chinatown and Little Tokyo.

Drinks & Nightlife

Monday nights this little restaurant has the best swing bands and big bands around! They always put on a stellar show! Dine next to the Santa Monica airport runway with some great Pan Asian cuisine and cocktails. There are menu items for the daring as well. Bring earplugs, it can get loud.

This little blues joint has been around for decades and draws the best in the business. Check the schedule though because they also do a burlesque show some nights. Cocktails and a small dance floor.
