YES! I do have some advise on how to hatch a lapras.
Obtain $100 (either through having a job/answering google surveys/or having a savings) and drop it on pokecoins.
Then incubate EVERYTHING and walk.
I'm in CA and my favorite place for kilometers this weekend has been Long Beach. Awesome XP grind when all the lures are lit. (if the pokestops are not lit with lures, well you dropped $100 so use it)
