Look how worn the trails are!

Family selfie in front of the Hollywood sign.
Not great air quality.  Reminds me of Utah winters.

Such a cool sign!

We enjoyed lunch outside from the cafe.  Peruvian chicken, spicy pasta salad, and sautéed zucchini with yellow squash.  It was delicious!
Picture of Mommy at lunch.  Look at our view!
Skyler got to test a gyroscope in the gift shop.  He ended up getting a gyroscope as a souvenir .
Goodbye!  :(
