Sept. Swanking - Pink Martini @ The Hollywood Bowl (or some such thing) - Page 13

Not Afraid · 09-12-2007, 07:38 PM

We're going to Pink at the Bowl at 5:00. Cell phones should start ringing about 4:30. We'll bring some foodstuffs.

The picnic spot can be reached by coming UP Highland Blvd and parking in the Bowl parking lot to your right (which are across Highland from the Bowl, accessed by an underground pedestrian tunnel.)

The parking lot surrounds a yellow barn-like building, housing a museum. There are lots of lovely grassy picnicking areas throughout, including around the DeMille barn. Obviously, the barn offers the best landmark for locating a group in an unfamiliar area.

I think we're going to be joining the gang around picnic-time, as well. There's a chance I might be up for a late-night Pink's stop - but I think it's past H's bedtime.

This map: http://www.hollywoodbowl.com/getting...ng_areamap.cfm
shows it as Lot D. Basically, come up Highland, you make a right at Odin (where the cops are inevitably directing traffic) and then you make a right into the lot.

Hmm, I think Pink Day sounds like fun ... but of course I understand if folks can't spend the entire day having fun with friends (and constantly eating).

So I'm thinkin' that unless a reasonable group of roughly half the 17 who are Hollywood Bowling are going to go Pinking, mayhaps we should scrap the Pinking.

So, are there at least 8 swankers who want to play pink all day?? Right now, I count but four.

I'm torn. It does sound like a hoot, but I'm exhausted just reading the itinerary. Hmmm
