Is this what used to be the "canaval" thing that slowly de-evolved into a gay pride parade?

Let's see... you could head south to Huntington beach brewery, although parking is expensive and hard to find if it is a sunny day.

Redondo beach is nice, drive over to San Pedro, take 1st street (or 9th street) up to western and make a left, continue on until you hit 25th and make a right, drive for about ten miles up the coast until you hit Redondo, there is a big underground parking lot right at the Pier, lots of stuff to do or see there.

or continue up PCH to Manhattan brewery.
