This was our Saturday...

We decided to head to LA again and check out Griffith Observatory. On our way there we stopped at Gloria's Cafe (a little Mexican hole in the wall we saw on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives!) It was delicious...sorry we didn't take pictures there :)

Drake slept all the way there, but he was awake for the observatory. Next time we go we will be going at night, on a weeknight, and we will take Drake's carrier...no room for a stroller with all those people!!

Parking was interesting...we had to park about a mile down the mountain and walk up to the Observatory. It was a nice walk though, awesome views and a nice breeze the whole time!

At the observatory we got to see all kinds of stuff about the sun, moon, and stars. We even saw the periodic table they have there with all the elements and the Hollywood sign!! Here are a few pics from our visit :)
