I have been to LA many times and I agree with blackdog in that the traffic is horrific - I spent 3 hours on a 8 line highway, bumper to bumper going from the airport to the city. Beverly Hills and other areas are gorgeous but all in all it is not one of my favorite cities. I still vote for San Diego as California's best city with San Fran a close second.blackdog said:LA is a crazy difficult and not very good looking city. Not as many hotties as you would expect, T.O. is better. Some of the most uninteresting architecture, think miles and miles of mississauga/scarboruough with mangy palm trees, and strange pockets of unexpected niceness. Everything is way too far away, and the traffic...earthquakes...OJ.....it goes on and on...
