Some frustration, in that the first two places we visited today were closed! So we diverted and visited the La Brea Tar Pits, which was next door and open. Not a high spot, but the garden was nice. There was even a bit of a sculpture garden, but I won't dwell on that! It was interesting, though, to see the amazing density of fossilised bones they discovered, buried in the asphalt. In the garden they had models of the poor mammoths succumbing to the tar (see pic below).

We had dinner at Luna Park - well we had to really, didn't we? Fate took us there, and the food was excellent. I had the 'best burger yet' and Moop had 'the best fillet steak yet', so we will return! It is a huge, dark, rather industrial space with a high ceiling, dark furniture and, rather endearingly, chandeliers mixing with exposed air conditioning pipes. We were early, but I bet it gets very noisy!
