Alllll my life....I have wondered what it is like to see the Hollywood sign in California!
The last time I went to San Diego to visit Blake, I thought we might get to see it then! Well, Blake was new to the area and had thought it would take like 5 hours to get there from where he lived. Well, come to find out.................it is only an hour and a half!!
SO....there was NO doubt that the next time I came to visit......I was going to MAKE IT happen to see it!
And...I did just that!
Rented a car...
and we took off!
So excited!
We trekked up a HUGE mountain and made it to Griffith park! Well, that was beautiful and all...but we quickly realized to actually get to the top {from there} to the sign...we were going to have to hike 6 miles.
SO we said NO! ha!
I asked a local man and he immediately told us a better place/park to go that the locals know to see the sign so we took off there! {let me remind you....if we didnt have our car...none of this would have been possible!}
The ride to the 'local area' was pretty scary at times! ha! I had to go around some sharp curves. Up some really high peaks but we made it and it was a cool experience to see all the fancy homes as we passed alllll the way to the top!
Just like what I imagined from the movies!
It ws further away than we had hoped...yet it seemed so close too! There was a beautiful park with bright green grass right below us that you can kind of see behind them.
