All afternoon and evening alone in Los Angeles, what should I do?

[Anonymous]

I’ll have one day alone in LA and want to do something memorable for myself. I could go to a spa, get the best hair color of my life, go to a museum, do a food tour, eat 20 tacos, but what should I do? One or two great adventures.

Where in LA will you be? It can take hours to get across the area, lol.

When I have 1/2 a day. I go to the Getty center, treat myself to a fancy lunch or dinner and look over LA with a glass of wine and wander the gardens.
For dinner, I've gone to good hole in the wall Japanese by myself or Eataly.

Go to Santa Monica, hang on the beach and do dinner at one of the hotels or restaurants overlooking the beach

Good point, starting in Burbank.

Go on a long morning beach walk or bike ride, then go to breakfast/brunch in a walkable area (for example either Main St or Montana Avenue in Santa Monica; another good option: Melrose from San Vicente to Crescent Heights). Poke around, sit at a coffee shop.
In the afternoon, after showering up, go to LACMA or the Getty. Then go an early dinner (dining scene is great). After, end your night with a show at The Greek theatre or Hollywood Bowl.
Eat late night tacos. That’s a perfect LA day.

Will you have a car, and do you need to be back in Burbank at the end of the day?

Ending up back in Burbank. I’d rather not rent a car.

See if you can get tickets to the taping of a tv show.

Never mind. Probably can’t happen on a Sunday.

I would recommend the Getty or Griffith Park and Observatory. Maybe Venice. But I would just pick one then get a nice meal.
