Many popular surf shops nearby like Billabong and Hurley, a long peir streching out over the water with restaurants and stores on the end, expensive parkinglots close to the shore, tonnes of people tanning surfing and playing in the sand, and large sidewalks on the beach to walk, skateboard, jog, bike and inline skate on.

... Dr Phil, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Johnny Weismuller, Dean Martin, Nicholas Cage, Tom Jones, Robbie Williams (very twee house), Hitchcock, Spencer Tracey, Lucille Ball, etc, etc. We then headed back through Rodeo Drive (the "Pretty Woman" shop looks tiny!) and out to Sony Studios. We took a studio tour which included a sound stage (used for "The Sound of Music"), facade buildings (used in many films - their head office building has been used in "Running Man" amongst others and the ...

... does to you... Anyway, after that we went back to the restaurant ("what's it called?") and then headed up to Sunset B. Enter the O.C., or Beverly Hills 90210 for the older ones reading this (Rooney / Dafyd!). It was fantastic, every place we went to was loaded with fitties and we only had to speak within earshot of them, and we'd get "hey, are you from England?", or sometimes "hey, are you from Australia?", and that was our night basically -- talking to young aspiring ...
