If you're a fan of comic strips and cartoons, you can have a grand time running all over California visiting all the museums and seeing murals and other locations dedicated to them. You'll find statues of Bugs Bunny and Kermit the Frog, a museum full of Peanuts comic strips - and some of these animated characters even have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

If you're a film lover, it's pretty obvious that Los Angeles is the best place to indulge your passion for a weekend getaway, but there's a lot more to do than visit Universal Studios Hollywood and stroll down the Walk of Fame (as fun as those things are). Use the Los Angeles Film Lover's Getaway Guide to plan your trip and you'll discover behind the scenes walks, great class cinemas, a real studio tour and find out how to get inside locations seldom open to the public.

With the Academy Awards just over, we all get a few "stars" in our eyes this time of year. If you'd like to indulge in some cinemania, our guide to California's film sites is just the thing.
