I would say long beach. Or if you are willing to go further south down to orange county, there is laguna.

Scruffy - Welcome to the good ole US of A. Hope you enjoy your stay. Since your new to Mesa check out the Hollywood Mesa store. Never been there but a lot of guys here recommend it.

I was out in the Newport beach area last year. Very nice area situated just south of LA. Quiet beaches not very crowded. Might be a little expensive though. Work payed for it so I really didn't pay attention. Stayed at the Fairmont 4 Season, very nice.

Yeah, I'm hoping to squeeze it in along with a GC to see what the fuss is about, maybe pick up a bargain if there is any.

Thanks for that , ironically I was just noseying round that hotel on line, might be just the thing.

Remember to wear your bandanna, wear the appropriate colors usually flannel shirts, and walked along the neighborhood with a few aerosol spray cans ... :lol:

Be sure to also confront anyone else with this same look. Tell them they are posers and that they are scared of your "rebel status" :lol:

You guys are terrible!

LA is a fun place to visit. I don't think I could live there but they used to have a video game convention that I would attend every year down there. They don't have it anymore so it's been a few years... I do miss my yearly visit!

Anyway welcome to the States!
