Hi guys,
OK, so, I've never been to CA. WFIV will be my first visit. Looking at flight reservations (USAir -- we're using some miles to fly first class

), it's become clear to us that there are NO direct flights from Charlotte to Palm Springs. There ARE direct flights from Clt. to LA, though. No biggie. So, we will be flying into LA early Friday morning. Now, here are my questions: (And yes, I know some have been asked before -- sorry; and yes, I know some of these are dumb -- sorry again.)
- Aside from the obvious Rodeo Drive (which my wife wants to see, not me), what else should I visit in LA? Laguna Beach in there, too, right?
- How bad of a drive is it from LA to Palm Springs? I hear horror stories about CA traffic, so I'm just wondering. I want to be in PS for the "festivities" on Friday night.
- Any other recommendations/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Juan
