Pania's Lash Bar

Check out one of the most successful teams in the history of the NBA. The Los Angeles Lakers formed in 1947 and quickly rose among the ranks. The second most valuable NBA franchise, the Lakers hold the record for the longest winning streak as well as 17 championships. Wear your purple, gold and white jerseys out to the Staples Center to show your support for this all-star sports team.

Spend a glamorous night (or two or three) at the Hollywood Bed & Breakfast. Located next to Hollywood Boulevard, this quirky bed and breakfast is within walking distance of several LA attractions, including Sunset Strip, Grauman's Chinese Theatre and several world-class restaurants. Guests at this three room B&B have full access to the parlor, dining room, kitchen, screening room and pool.

Watch a live jousting performance while you tear into your delicious dinner with your bare hands. At the Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament, you join a section and cheer for your knight as he competes against five others for the title of King's Champion. Raise your voice and experience the thrill of watching armored knights fight on horseback and with swords.

If you are willing to travel a bit out of the main LA area, be sure to add the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden to your destinations list. This gorgeous, 127-acre garden and outdoor oasis is nestled into the low-key San Gabriel town, near the mountains. The Arboretum houses luscious plant collections from all over the world, including many rare and endangered species.
