None taken!
Yet again, many many thanks for making the planning easier for me.
The link to the guide is greatly appreciated as well! Does this particular one have only street guides of particular cities or the road atlas as well (e.g. will we be able to plan our Beverly Hills to Disneyland trip)?

I also love Google Maps.
And, to get from the Hilton to Disneyland:
-Go left (West) on Wilshire.
-Bear right onto I-405 South.
-Take I-10 East.
-Take I-5 South.
-Drive for about 35 minutes, then follow the signs to Disneyland.
Here's a Google map of those directions.
And one last tip... www.sigalert.com for traffic conditions
PS - If your bf can drive DC, he can drive LA.

And always have your car radio preset with the two "all news" (well most of the time it's news, talk shows and Dodger games abuse their scheduling) AM radio stations. Listening to traffic reports is a staple of living in El Lay.

You mean, "A sig alert now...a big rig, dead in the water in the #4 lane on the northbound Santa Ana Freeway just before the Crush is jamming things up all the way to the El Toro Y" isn't self explanatory?

Forms of the word "jam" are common though and should be self explanatory.
