I hope you have oodles of fun. Road trips can be a real hoot with the right people. Even wives, if they aint naggy.
Hehehehehe! I feel bad about trailering the bike, but it's the only way we'd be able to take it. April in the Rockies can be very unpredictable, weather-wise. Plus we have to get from Calgary to LV in 2 days, which will involve almost 24 hours behind the wheel. So...the bike gets hauled down. Oh well, at least it will be there when we want to enjoy it.

As for the fun of road trips...that's one of the things my wife loves the best about me. She loves to do road trips, and I'd much rather drive than fly anywhere. Not that we don't like to fly, but you get to see more and experience more if you drive.

What did you plan on seeing in LA, I might be able to give you some ideas where to stay.

OH!! Just remembered. If you are in the San Diego/LA area May 6th or 7th, Celtic Woman is touring here.
Sigh...we have to be back home no later than the 4th, so we'll miss that show.

As for what we'd like to see...mainly the usual "touristy" type stuff. Rodeo Drive, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Griffin (sp?) Park, some of the beaches, etc. We'll only have a day or so top spend there, so we can't do too much. As our budget is tight we'll most likely be staying at Motel 6's and such. Nothing too spendy.
