We drove on narrow and winding roads that goes through
residential areas to come closer to the Hollywood sign. And
we did indeed. We weren't the only ones knowing the location
though as there were already some other cars, but it wasn't
crowded at all. We even got a good view of the Hollywood
reservoir.
After the sign we moved on to the Griffith Observatory. We even
tried to hike a few hundred meters but quickly turned back to our
car to continue to Hollywood Blvd where we had lunch.
We ran into a lot of traffic on our way to the Getty's Museum so
we turned and stopped by the Westfield shopping mall in
Westwood instead. It was nothing special there, in fact quite
boring. There was a Sony store though and they had some of our
very old products there. I had some good chat with a friend of a
colleague (M. I.) back in Lund.
We'll be out of internet connection the rest of our trip. Vegas
hotels have only wired internet access. :'(
The plan looks like this:
* June 24: Leave LA around 9 AM tomorrow so we arrive in Vegas
around 4 or 5 PM. Have a nice buffet dinner in The Mirage. Go
see some free shows like the Bellagio Fountains and the Caesars
Palace's Fall Of The Atlantis laser show.
* June 26: Leave Vegas very early (around 6-7 AM) for Grand
Canyon. We want to see something before sunset. Stay a night at
South Rim.
* June 25: Leave Grand Canyon around lunch time. Arrive in
Vegas around 7-8 PM. Pack our bags.
* June 26: Return our rental and leave the U.S.
