Vacation 2002 Day 2

Day 2 started out getting up a little late, heading out for brunch and doing some shopping. We then headed up to Griffith Observatory, then on to Wedding rehearsal and then rehearsal dinner in Pomona. Which was a real challenge to find coming from Covina. Especially at night, having to catch like 5 or 6 different freeways. That's ok, even the groom-to-be got "a little lost" on the way. (Or at least that what he told us)?

Walking from our hotel to get something  to eat. An outdoor area for one of the bars just  a few doors down from the hotel.  Kinda pretty in the day time, and wild  and loud at night.  Outdoor  bar  area  again.  Stage is on the  right side.
