Day at Griffith Park

Supercalifragilisticexpialidousious! Reminds me for some reason of Mary Poppins!

We decided to take off to Griffith park in L.A. and mix things up a bit. What a beautiful day! We couldn't have asked for more perfect weather, who'd have thought that it was January.

We started off at the pony rides, only Blake rode because the lines for the bigger ponies were so long. Unfortunately, we didn't get any stills of Blake just video! When I figure out how to add that here .....I'll do it.

Next, we drove on up to the Carousel. It was so happily situated on a hill surrounded by trees with these beautiful pink blossoms. The carousel was placed there in 1937 and the quality of the pipes is top notch for it's time and still sounds so good! The horses were different than the carousel at Disneyland....definitely antique. They were so unique and the tails were made of real horse hair! Thank goodness it was spared from the fire that recently burned through the park. It would have been such a loss. We could see the burned hills around the parking area just above the carousel.
