San Diego... The Zoo is always good. If you like warships they have the
Midway anchored there. You can walk around an air craft carrier! They also have the Maritime Museum. Lots of great places to eat around there. The
Gaslamp Quarter is full of places to shop/eat like Hollywood only with a San Diego vibe. If you ever wanted to learn to surf they have a surf school that is fun and laid back. Had my old lady go there because teaching your old lady to surf is mind numbing and only leads to a bad time! Blacks Beach... check out some titties...
Find some local webmasters (there are some in South America too) and have them take you to some clubs. For LA, talk to the LA based program owners...
