Los Angeles

August 10, 2008

There may be no better place to see Los Angeles than from Griffith Park Observatory. Aren couldn’t stay away from his telescope.

Iden preferred the indoor ones.

The interactive exhibits were pretty cool, too.

    That is, Chris, assuming the haze and smog are thin enough that day to see ANYTHING . . . LA ain’t Beijing, at least not any more . . .

    Don’t miss it if you every get a chance to see the view from there at night. The LA skyline is pretty dull in the daytime, but the endless lights are amazing at night.

    Also remember, they have a HUGE telescope. If you visit at night climb the stairs to the roof. The telescope is usually pointed at some cool object in the sky.
    If you visit during the day try taking a hike to the top of Mount Hollywood for a really fantastic view of L.A. (and the Hollywood sign to the west). When you exit the observatory, just keep walking straight, through the parking lot, over the bridge and up the trail. The hike is not too difficult. You can’t get lost… there are always a ton of people on the trail.
