-
Our thing, our first event, starts at 7pm, so we have plenty of time to take our time to get to California.
➔ Simple present for scheduled future events + infinitive of purpose

-
There is nothing to see, nothing to do.
➔ Existential "there is" + infinitive of purpose (nothing to + verb)
➔ "There is" introduces existence, while "nothing to see" uses the infinitive "to see" to describe a lack of something to do.
-
