The Griffith Observatory reopens
 

The Griffith Observatory has reopened. Sounds like a great place to have a meet.

Name the date - I'm in.

Well for me it will probably be sometime in '09 so you better take the lead in setting it up....

pfft! What a tease!

We actually have reservations for our anniversary next weekend! I'll be sure to rank the celestial swank...

Bill and I are going next wekend too! Saturday evening.

I think I'll wait until the reservations system is done with ... and more importantly when the parking lot reopens.

I can see talking busses from the bottom of the hill for the likes of Hearst Castle. But Griffith Observatory is not quite in the same league.

I got to go to a preview a few weeks ago and it was so nice to be back there. I missed that place! The expanded exhibit space is really nice and the building itself looks great. I'll have to go back though since they were still working on various exhibits when I was there and the planeterium show wasn't running yet.

The bus system was okay but slow. I parked near the zoo and the bus took a good twenty minutes to get up the hill because it went all the way around to Vermont first. Coming back seemed to take longer because there was so much traffic later in the day.

Ugh, it almost seems likes it worth it to hike up the hill.



Sorry, I know that parking lot was always a zoo. But having to take a bus to get there makes me just not want to go.

I'm very excited. I'll wait till some of the hooplah's died down and then plan my visit. Sweet!
