There is a tunnel scene in the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit and this is where that scene was filmed:
The tunnel leads to the Griffith Park Observatory:
On one side of the Observatory, you can see this sign:
On the other, a birdseye view of downtown Los Angeles:
When I was in highschool, my friends and I came here to watch laser shows and hang out - we did it a lot.
I love coming here and I was excited to show my own family one of my favorite haunts:
We didn't watch any shows because it was Sunday ... but we did tour the inside of the observatory.
We learned a little about the universe and admired the painted ceiling:
In the newly remodeled basement museum, we learned what Einstein was really pointing at:
We also learned that marble floors and benches can cause a wicked goose-egg. Poor little guy:
Luckily, we have an emergency kit in our car replete with a disposable cold pack and tylenol. We hope our B-Man has good memories of the Observatory and not just that it made him, in his words: "An egg head." To which I replied, after smiling to myself: "You have a goose egg, you are not an egg head."


i used to live right across the street from griffith park when i was really small.
