Not a whole lot going on downtown actually which was weird. I suppose it was the middle of the day on a Wednesday but still. The city blocks and metro stations were all kind of deserted apart from homeless people (there seems to be a lot of them here, I guess they all came for the good weather, just like us).
We walked a few city blocks and checked out the City Hall (didn't bother with going through the security, don't think it's visitor-friendly), the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels (apparently the third largest in the world, very unconventional-looking), and the Walt Disney Concert Hall (home to the L.A. Philharmonic, a beautiful sculpted steel building designed by Canadian Frank Gehry who also did the AGO).
On the way back to the hotel we stopped to have lunch on a patio on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and peered into the windows of big designer brands like Louis Vuitton, Versace, Dior, and so on. In true tourist spirit we also got a picture of a fancy Bugatti (probably belongs to a Saudi prince or oil tycoon or something).
