The Griffith Observatory reopens

I echo everything JW said. It's lovely-- and I can't wait to see it all. But we couldn't see much of it tonight. What we did see took us a long time spent waiting in lines just to read a placard or two.

That said, our best times tonight were out looking at the lights of Los Angeles. We found areas that weren't too swamped with people, and it was lovely gazing out at our city.

There are guided tours for eventual swanking, and I really want to go to a planetarium show. Though--bummer-- they're REALLY missing out on a great opportunity... we went to The Cafe at the End of the Universe to grab a beverage. While the view from the veranda is gorgeous, their offerings are typical museum fare despite its Wolfgang Puck name. They should've taken a hint from the Getty restaurants-- people in this city love fine dining.
