"Let me confer with the banana..."

So Danielle and I decided a few weeks ago that we should come up with a Friday night event and keep it a secret from our respective boyfriends. We thought a bit and chose the Griffith Observatory in L.A. We picked a Friday when the moon would be waning so that we could see the stars, invited our guys, and waited...and did NOT spill the beans. :) I wrote the directions on a banana and entrusted it to Danielle, who read them to me as I needed them (hence the title ;) ).
Little did we know, you can't see the stars at the observatory, moon or no moon, because of the abundance of light coming from one of the world's most populated cities. So we wandered around the observatory, looked at displays, and took pictures!

The infamous, informative banana...

Observatory and downtown L.A./Hollywood

We found Einstein!!! It was quite a shock...

Here we are...

Luke: "Act French!"
Wah-laah, we are French! ;)

Sad and yet funny :) Too bad you couldn't see the stars. So much for "look how the floor of heaven is thick inlaid with patines of bright gold".

LUKE AND DANIELLE? Had no idea. Yay!!
