Still a Tourist
I was reminded this week that I am still a tourist in this city. I was able to do some sightseeing this weekend when Susie was in town and saw some things I had seen before but also some things I hadn't. I took my first trip to Griffith Park, the largest Municipal Park in the country. We only saw a portion of it but I will definitely be going back for more.
One thing we saw was the observatory, what an incredible place! Not to mention FREE admission and parking! The building is beautiful and there is so much inside to learn about space and time. There are several telescopes that you can look at stars through on clear nights. We were their during the day but we are planning a night trip soon to get a look at the stars up close.
When the sun started to set we headed over to the part of the park that is hosting the annual light show. It is a 1.6 mile walk that takes you by incredible light displays of winter scenes and landmarks around Los Angeles.
