Since we aren't planning on living here forever, we try to go see something new every weekend. This weekend we went to Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, it is located on the hills above Hollywood and offers a great view of the city. Inside it is a basically a space museum. It was pretty cool and fun to do something different.
Us in front of it. We went with our friends Spenny, Nellie, and baby Logan. It was nice to have someone else there to be able to take pictures of us.
One of the views of Los Angeles. Lots of pollution in the air, not quite a clear day.
That little white thing in the back left of the picture is the Hollywood sign. Despite what it looks like in the picture, we were actually really close to it.
That's Spenny in the picture, Spenny and I grew up together and one of our favorite things as kids was Transformers. Needless to say we loved the Transformers Movie. Part of the movie was filmed at the Griffith Observatory, the one scene with picture below is when the Autobots landed, some of them landed by the Observatory. The other scene is where we are standing was when Optimus Prime was looking through the glasses to try to locate the All Spark. This is where they had their meeting. Anyway it was pretty cool to be there. There have been lots of movies filmed at the Observatory, Rebel Without a Cause, Terminator, Jurassic Park, Bond's Golden Eye and here is a bigger list http://www.imdb.com/List?endings=on&&locations=Griffith%20Park%20Observatory,%20Griffith%20Park%20-%204730%20Crystal%20Springs%20Drive,%20Los%20Angeles,%20California,%20USA&&heading=18;with+locations+including;Griffith%20Park%20Observatory,%20Griffith%20Park%20-%204730%20Crystal%20Springs%20Drive,%20Los%20Angeles,%20California,%20USA
Jackie and I chilling with Albert, pretty nice guy, don't know what he was looking at though.
I must have put on some weight since we got married, thank goodness we don't live on Jupiter. There was another funny picture that I was told I was not allowed to post on the blog, so if anyone is interested, I will email it to you.
Our last stop was a Hamburger joint called Tommy's. It's one of those places that you can feel yourself getting fatter as you eat. Chili Cheese Fries with a Double Chili Burger. It was Yummy

That looks like a fun day! Great pics, CJ! Oh, and by the way, since I never call you C. J., but rather, Seej, I'm going to start spelling your name like Siege. That's right, as in a war word. A nice manly war word. Siege. I like it.
Looks like fun! Definitely want to see the picture you weren't allowed to post.
Thanks for inviting us to come and take pictures of you! He he he. It was way fun. I might steal the link to that page that lists movies that its in.
you guys are always up to tons of fun. I want to be like you!!!!!! So much harder with a baby and no job to give me money to go to these fun places. I'll have to save my lunch money.
You guys are always doing new and cool things. I wish we would have taken advantage of all of the fun things there. You guys are so cute!
