These pictures are from the second night in Los Angeles where I still am. Soon I'm heading to Mexico but there's no reason not to include random pictures from recent experiences. October 11th is when I met a cool girl whom I hosted in Israel over 3 years ago. She lives in LA and suggested the lovely Griffith Observatory. It's up a hill overlooking LA and the infamous HOLYWOOD sign. Really beautiful and interesting exhibits inside.
After enjoying the reunion and amazing place I went on to a more touristy and boring place - Holywood Bvd where there are lots of stars on the pavement with names of movie stars. The only joy I imagine one could extract from it would be stepping on the names of hated celebrities. But hey, I get that other people do enjoy that. I went there to meet an even older friend I've met back in Thailand nearly 8 years ago. You know you're getting older when you can meet people you haven't met for many years. To longevity! Now read what's under the pictures and leave a comment if you please.

| Apparently you can hike to the sign and try to vandalize it. Too far for me :) |

cool pic with moving lights! guess it was an accident :)
ReplyDeleteThe photos are great! I liked the psychedelic one where the camera moved.
ReplyDeleteTeddies in space seem plausible enough an explanation.
All the best,

It is always sweet when you meet a friend from way back. It lifts you spirit knowing you have friends all over the world you share a little "travelling history" with. That is also locked in the heart :)
ReplyDeletenow, you know why I decided to not join you to Hollywood :P
ReplyDeleteI'm happy that I was able to share Griffith park observatory with you though. It's one of my favorite places in LA :)
