BEST TIME TO VISIT
Any time is good
to
visit LA,
but the Summer is special. July through early
October is the most popular period to visit LA. Outdoor living
(concerts, music, eating, biking...) and beach life are mainly centred
in the rainless summer months.
If you want to avoid smog then avoid the period between June and
October.
If you you want less crowds and lower prices in accommodation and other
services, then do not choose the summer. Instead, choose March, April
and May, or the period between September and November. If you want less
packed periods, avoid also the major holidays. Thanksgiving is a
specially packed period, with much higher accommodation
prices.
TIPS
FOR
TRAVELLERS
Don't
travel with more valuables than it
will fit in a small hotel safe.
If you are carrying expensive camera or video equipment that won't fit
in the safe, consider carrying it in something other than a standard
camera case, or putting your camera case into an ordinary backpack or
soft-sided cooler.
If you're running out for a while and leaving valuables in your room,
leave the TV on and leave the "Do Not Disturb" notice on the door.
Leave a light on too if you go out in the evening.
Don't leave extra copies of the room key in the room when you go out
for your safety.
Use the extra latches provided to secure the door when you're inside
the room.
If anyone comes to the door claiming to be hotel staff and you haven't
specifically requested them, ask for ID and call and confirm with the
front desk before letting them in.
Don't let strangers in your room, no matter how friendly.
Check that the door is locked when you close it, and don't forget your
key in the lock.
Keep it locked, whether you are in it or leaving it parked.
Don't leave luggage, purses, shopping bags, GPS or other electronics or
anything else in view.
There are a lot of homeless people in LA. Whether you feel inclined to
give them money is up to you, but a polite "I'm sorry, I can't help
you" is generally enough to get someone to leave you alone. Since some
of the homeless are mentally ill or addicts, being rude or mean to them
is not helpful, and could put you at unnecessary risk.
