Griffith Observatory - Saturday, August 4, 2007
Today I went to the Griffith Observatory with my parents, Mrs. Dang, and Priscilla's and Crescentia's family. It was my first time going. I really enjoyed the panoramic Planetarium show with its CGI and the lively narrator who never skipped a beat in delivering his lines for half an hour.
We also watched a documentary about the history and the challenging renovation of the observatory, which required raising the building with hydraulic jacks and building a level beneath it.
Too bad we couldn't stay until 7pm for the telescope room to open. I'm sure it would've been awesome to look through the giant telescope there. Well, hopefully I'll get to go back again sometime. Even though I don't particularly like museums and whatnot.
