Hollywood touring bus in Los Angeles

If feet could talk, yours would be complaining loudly right now. They’ve traipsed up and down the boulevards of Hollywood and through the exclusive boutiques of Rodeo Drive. They’ve helped you rediscover your inner child on ridiculously scary roller coasters at Universal Studios and the day before that they hit Santa Monica’s 3rd Street Promenade for some serious retail therapy and the famous pier to shop for tacky souvenirs. Tomorrow? Exploring the majestic Queen Mary, once the pride of the Cunard Line but since 1972 a luxury hotel based at Long Beach.

Once that’s out of the way it’s off to Orange County’s Newport Beach for a little relaxation. You’ll probably squeeze in a little window shopping at Fashion Island, home to brands like Juicy Couture, Neiman Marcus and Victoria’s Secret, but your feet will get a break while you sample a famous fish taco from Wahoo’s. After all, they need some recovery time before you sample the local nightlife.

Poor feet. Lucky you.

bar you’re after, try the Library Bar Downtown."
