Los Angeles Live Steamers is a club that maintains a minature train track near LA's Griffith Park. The club runs member built trains on a track on Saturdays, and allows the public to come ride these little trains. This is a great experience -- for both the train buff and the kids. Sit on knee high trains around a track, lots of different trains, and very enthusiastic members. Highly recommended.

If you want to take an adventure in LA, you really need to check out Olvera Street aka El Pueblo de Los Angeles. It's a place filled with an amazingly rich history and it's a place to get really great tasting mexican food and sweets. There are dozens of vendors selling all sorts of things from belts and wallets to wooden snakes and paper roses. It's a great place to go if you've got some time on your hands and just want to take a little adventure.

Runyon Canyon is many things to many Angelinos. For some, it’s a free way to torch calories after a night of too many cosmos and 3 a.m. Pho. For others, it’s a place to go for quiet contemplation and free, yes free, yoga! While both are great reasons to visit the hills just above Hollywood Blvd., (East of Fairfax and West of La Brea) let’s discuss the more subconscious reason people love it … Runyon Canyon is one of the only hyper friendly places in L.A. People there actually smile, make eye contact and say good morning to total strangers while puffing up the mountain. It’s as if for one brief moment, everyone around you is from the mid-west!
This city of “Angels” often seems like a living oxymoron. The initial heavenly glow can get smoggy, and loneliness sets in pretty quickly when you’ve lived here for one month and still haven’t been discovered. So, the next time you need a smile or some company, just head to the canyon we all know and love for a little indirect TLC.
Pros: friendly happy place where you burn calories for free
Cons: smells like, um doggie doo when it's hot out, gross

My friends and I go to Hollywood Billiards often and have a great time. I like the atmosphere there, it's laid back and the people that go there are always cool. The place is pretty big and the pool tables are spaced apart at a good distance as not to poke other players at the other tables.

The Zimmer Museum offers hands-on experience for kids to step inside a ambulance and sit in a wheelchair, play dress-up on a real stage with an ongoing camera, fly a plane, play waiter or waitress in a restaurant, step inside a synagogue, play with a water puzzle, see a wall-size world map, etc. They also offer music classes and art classes, however they fill-up quickly and can be overcrowded at times. There's plenty of stimulation can be overwhelming. Personally, I think this could be a nice place to take your kid a few times a year, but i wouldn't recommend an annual membership unless you've got a community of friends who attend regularly.

This place is great fun, and every kid should ride a pony at least once. They match you up with a pony depending on how scared you look and how fast you look like you can handle. It's good for kids to feel like they're living their pony dreams but also reassuring for parents that they're just going in a loop. Fairly inexpensive as far as pony rides go also, and the rest of Griffith Park is beautiful as well.

Disneyland is like a magnet attracts everyone. I want to write this because I think some of the first timers forgot to go the most original theme in the park. This area is the town of where all the original characters’ home. I mean, if I ask what terms you can come out with Disney, perhaps you will answer Mickey, Minnie, etc. Their stories often happen in their houses which are the background images we have remembered. I think it is amazing to walk inside these characters homes. I am an adult, but when I walked into these homes, I still feel it is a dream comes true. It gives an illusions of these characters really exist in this place.

Paid a small fortune to take a tour of the stars
Beverly Hills homes. I'm still wondering if those are
really the stars houses? I remember going by "Cher's"
home and I got so excited seeing garbage cans...I
shouted "Look, she has garbage!" We also went
by Bill Cosby's home and some older stars that had
passed away. I really had fun sightseeing! They let
us stop to take photos also.
