向去过洛杉矶或者迪斯尼的同志们请教：
我本月底下月初去洛杉矶开会，领导和双双随行。想问一问
（1）是不是应该租辆车?
（2）有没有在我开会期间他们爷俩可以消磨时间的地方(开会期间我们会住在会议中心附近）？
（3）会议结束后我们大概会有2天半的时间，打算去好莱坞和迪斯尼，迪斯尼乐园附近啥旅馆性价比好些？
（4）双双才1岁多，是不是disneyland就够了？还要去那个adventure吗？
先多谢了啊

Yes. A car is a must in LA.

Hollywood is not really a defined area, but there should be plenty of places to visit, like the Walk of Fame, Rodeo Drive, Hollywood Hills, etc.

I have never been to Disneyland. It's in Anaheim, which is a bit far, but you don't need to stay in the vicinity if you have a car. I'm sure the hotels nearby are a rip-off.

Have FUN! (it's going to be very hot though. Bring sunblock)

是啊，我昨晚查迪斯尼自己的旅馆，要200多刀一晚上

迪士尼自己的酒店超贵，想略省的话住园子外面的MOTEL就可以了吧。不过我一直很想住住他家的天鹅酒店和海豚酒店的说，麦克格雷夫斯设计的。

门票从disney.com买价格有折扣，还省了排队时间，用不完的天数永不作废。推荐。一般早上十一点前和下午五点后园内游人少。

一定要租辆车。也不用住的太近，你沿着5号找个酒店就好。 可以去象marriot, holiday inn自己的网站上，找大LA地区的，然后，看哪个交通方便又便宜就行了。

adventure 推荐你和你家领导玩。soaring in california 很棒。

嘻嘻，你也来开SIGRAPH么？图形同学们每年夏天都欢聚LA。

我怎么感觉安那罕附近旅馆也不是太贵呀，现在好多人都在那里开会，附近有无数小旅馆比如best western什么的，也就七八十，应该跟downtown差不多吧。你去orbitz再查查看？

要是不嫌累，你家领导可以带双双去seaworld呀，也就是一天功夫。我觉得seaworld里头的小推车比迪斯尼还多。downtown附近有hollywood blvd呀，还有个griffith公园加天文台。再开远点在pasadena有个huntington library，也还可以看看。

UCLA, USC这些学校的ticket center也卖折扣票，大概一张票便宜个十块钱左右。

你让钻石他们夫妇玩儿这个的时候，把双双搁哪儿？！

轮流上嘛

附议zephyr,可以找个UCLA or USC 的同学帮你买票。 好像seaworld折扣挺大。

just a side note: i came across some extremely aggressive, no, more like stark raving mad, drivers near LA... coming from me that's saying something. so be careful when driving and have fun!

西风，是SIGGRAPH，嘻嘻。就这两年连着在LA，以前是东边西边轮着的，我就去开过一次，是新奥尔良的时候。好像前几年一次在德州还是哪里亏本了，所以今年还在LA，请了george lucas做keynote，争取吸引人呢。
领导公司有折扣票，他试着去买了，如果买不到我再想办法。
seaworld听说不错，还有人跟我推荐san diego的lego park还有动物园，是不是很好呢？

San Diego to Anaheim should be around 100 miles, but do expect traffice most time of the day.

Ravaged you can no longer qualify for a Boston driver.

当地的Costco很多有门票卖（还包一顿饭）

花花你一说我就去costco网站上查了，结果看到了这个：
Disneyland® Resort Play 4 Days Exchange Certificate (Southern California Residents Only)
Must reside within ZIP codes 90000-93599 / Proof of residency required upon redemption
$99.00

地域歧视，告他们！

hehe, i'm totally mourning the loss of my bad-ass rap! my friends there were like, "yeah you shouldn't worry about cops, coz you're from the east coast! you guys are mellow! i heard over there the left lane is only used for passing! (thunderous laughter)" what do you say to that?

anyway, i'd say go to the sea world, even though it's a total and unabashed tourist trap. the reason is simply that everybody goes... and there're some good shows. (make sure to get to the shamu shows at least 15 minutes in advance, and that's on a weekday...) i did like the zoo a lot, but it's definitely time-consuming. the express shuttle saved my life (or feet).
