I am bad at showing people around.

I have come to the realization that I am a really bad tour guide when people come to town. This has happened now on probably three or four occasions, where friends or family come to Los Angeles and I really suck it up when it comes to showing them the sights. I really don't know what I am supposed to do. I don't know the places you are supposed to go. Where do normal tourists visit? I mean, I can tell you the best bars in any given area, or good food, but you can't fill a day like that. Go downtown and stare at the tall buildings? I dunno. Especially if they aren't bar or club people, which they never are, I have nothing.


My girlfriend's college friend from France flew in yesterday and they were looking for things to do. I started talking about good bars at the Hermosa pier and up in Manhattan. Then my girlfriend politely noted to me that her friend doesn't drink. Doesn't drink? Well then I've got nothing for you babe.

Anyone else like this? You just feel bad that you can't show people a better time when they visit, especially people from outside the US.
