I went downtown Saturday afternoon.
Los Angeles is a strange city; most residents never go downtown. But I'm telling you, if you're a local you owe it to yourself to visit. You can plan a museum trip or a hotel brunch if you like, but I suggest to just go for the sake of going. Eat lunch from a sidewalk vendor. Stop in at Macy's. Whatever. Being surorunded by skyscrapers gives you the feeling that you're on a little mini-vacation in a bustling city. You can take the metro in and ride on one of the cleanest, smoothest subways you'll find anywhere.
For less than the price of one gallon of gas (which isn't saying much!) you can have a fun little adventure. Do it.
UPDATE: WE JUST HAD A BLACKOUT, STRANDING PEOPLE IN SUBWAYS AND ELEVATORS. NEVER GO DOWNTOWN.
