Fun things to do in Hollywood?
 

Hello. I will be in Hollywood for 5 days at the end of October. I am very outgoing and looking for some fun activities. Any recommendations?
Cheers!

Dress like P. Hilton and lead paparazzis on a wild goose chase ;)

Hey Faina, I missed those geese when we were in Hollywood last month. Where are they?

I was going to suggest having your picture taken on the casting couch outside California Pizza Kitchen at Hollywood & Highland Center. Or, try to make that Buckingham Palace guard look-alike standing outside that store just off Rodeo Drive laugh.

Sorry! ;-)

You should check out Universal City Walk/Studios. In October iFLY Hollywood will be opening up at Universal City Walk, next to Hard Rock Café. This is an outdoor skydiving place, a vertical wind tunnel. (www.iflyhollywood.com) If you are outgoing and want to experience the thrill of human body flight you should definitely check it out. I can’t wait for them to open!

BeachBum, all these wild geese had moved to Oakland, the mayor is trying to find a solution to get rid of their droppings :))

I need to put the mayor in touch with my friend, Faina. He builds power plants, and was telling me last week about one that uses turkey and chickensh*t as fuel. Seriously! I bet goosesh*t would work too. :?

Sorry to hijack your thread, krissy. We were actually in Hollywood last month, but didn't do much more than the typical touristy stuff: Universal Studios and City Walk, searching for favorites on the Walk of Fame, Grauman's Theatre, and gawking up and down Rodeo Drive (not really in Hollywood). My $.02 is that, if you have the option, you'd probably find more fun at a nearyby beach community like Santa Monica or Venice.

Have fun!

If you'll be there during Halloween -- don't miss the West Hollywood festivities. It's like Mardi Gras.

When I visited a friend in Los Feliz, we had a great time one night at a show at the Upright Citizens Brigade theater. Also, we spent a really fun day at the Getty Center - it's amazing.
