<font color=navy>I live just about 15 minutes from Redondo Beach Pier, so I can second Tony's for dinner - especially when the sun sets.
We have a link at the top of the Disneyland Board that has some things to do while in Los Angeles.
I like taking people to the La Brea Tarpits (the ones destroyed in the movie Volcano). Rodeo Drive is just a couple blocks west of the tarpits and Farmers Market is a mile or two north of the La Brea Tarpits. While you're there, you can then go up Sunset Blvd. & Hollywood Blvd. & sightsee. You can then go to Mann's Chinese Theater & see the stars on the boulevard.
Do you have a full day? You can drive down to Oceanside, drive inland on Hwy 78 to Julian, and then go to Anza Borrego ... that ride will take you from the ocean through farmland, the mountains (w/yummy apple pie), and then to the desert, where the flowers should be in bloom. It's a great day outing - but it takes all day.
If you want to pick fruit, you might want to drive to Oak Glen, about 1.5 hours from Disneyland - this is at the foot of the San Bernardino Mtns, and they grow a lot of fruit/veggies during the year. I'd recommend going to the Riley Farm, where they have an old school house, and you can make candles the old fashioned way, and keep them. There is also a petting zoo up there, and local entertainment. We usually go in September/October for picking apples and pumpkins, but I know they also have strawberries, raspberries, etc., that you can pick, and might have some spring fruit in season to pick.
There are also a lot of strawberry fields on the way to San Diego, close to Carlsbad - kind of near Legoland, and they might offer fruit pickings there.
Do you want to see tidepools? If the weather is nice, you can go to Whites Point at the Palos Verdes Peninsula, and see the animals at the tidepools. There is also a marine museum - Cabrillo Beach Museum, which is interesting, and has hands-on tidepools there. You can then drive around Palos Verdes, and stop at the Wayfarer's Chapel - beautiful glass chapel overlooking Abalone Cove (used in the old days for smuggling). As you round PV Peninsula, you'll see the Point Vicente Lighthouse - and the old entrance to Marineland - below that is where they filmed the fort scenes for Pirates of the Caribbean. If you're there in April, stop at the Lighthouse, and see if you can see any whales on their way back north. You can probably also see Catalina Island (on a clear day). Leaving Palos Verdes Peninsula, you'll arrive at Torrance Beach, and you can see Redondo Beach Pier in the distance, where the restaurant Tony's on the Pier is. There are two Tony's restaurants - one is Old Tony's. We like the Tony's fishmarket, because as the sun sets, you can see the condo lights turn on along the beach. also, if you sit near a window, you can open it and listen to the waves hit the beach -- very nice. (The rascals and I took Dan Murphy there when he came to visit a few years ago) Sunsets are wonderful there.
We've got a bit of everything here in Los Angeles. You just gotta decide what you want to do.
