More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You climb aboard a climate-controlled minibus in the Anaheim resort district and watch the suburbs shrink behind you as freeways stitch the city toward Los Angeles. Glass and concrete rise in downtown LA, then the coach eases into the sun-dried Hollywood Hills where the Walk of Fame unfurls underfoot and the Hollywood Sign perches like a carved punctuation mark.
