Must Do Activities in Los Angeles
In a couple weeks, we are heading to Los Angeles for Spring Break! What must do activities in Los Angeles come to mind for you?
We vacationed in Los Angeles 3.5 years ago. It’s surprising how fast the time goes! Henry was 6.5 at the time, and Tate was 4.

- Malibu Kitchen and Gourmet
- Apricot Love Farms
- Hike to Cave of Munits
- Getty Center
- California
