LA question for Cali deucers

Will be in LA next weekend for a family event. Event is Saturday evening at 7, and we’ll have all day Saturday free before the event. Trying to decide what to do and have never done the whole Griffith Observatory experience.

Wondering a) if it’s worthwhile, and b) how much time we should allow on a Saturday (plus factoring in Memorial Day weekend).

We’re actually staying way South in Costa Mesa near the John Wayne airport, so it will be a hike. Would want to get back to the hotel by mid afternoon to get ready for evening.

Any thoughts/advice welcome!

Absolutely not. *

I don’t think I’d do it on a holiday weekend. *

Brandon Schrock of Laredo, Texas, told the federal government that his employer was “poop,” and his occupation was “pooper.”

That’s where I’m leaning, thx*

That would give you the genuine California experience of looking at the taillights of cars.

You *could* squeeze it in, but I would stay in Orange County and do something Orange Countyish, like Corona del Mar or Laguna Beach. Stop by a Ruby's for the authentic SoCal diner experience.

Griffith Park is pretty big, and you can do it in the daytime, but it's generally regarded as being better at night.

My uncle lived in Laguna for 30 years so done most everything in and around that area*

Are some of the places I went to. My friend lives two blocks from the entrance to the Observatory on Felix/Vermont. It was foggy that day
