After watching the fail whale eat our soccer team I headed south on Saturday.\u00a0 Sam made a delicious gumbo for us to eat before going to a full moon hike at Franklin Canyon Ranch.\u00a0 Full moon hikes have good and bad points.\u00a0 The bad is that (at first) you’re chugging along with fifty people.\u00a0 Another bad is that on trails (like this one) that are worn by the elements stumbling and tripping are constant dangers.\u00a0 There are night hikes in Griffith Park on the more even surfaced trails – but for some reason they are all on weekdays (WHAT??!!).\u00a0<\/p>\n

The good thing about moonlight hikes is the views of the city at night, and also the lack of getting all sweaty.\u00a0 From the top of Franklin Canyon we could see fireworks near what must have been the beach.\u00a0 Unfortunately I forgot my camera, so I had to make do with my cell phone…which didn’t actually make do at all.\u00a0 The light below the city is on the Franklin Canyon Reservoir building which was below us.\u00a0 That arrow shows the fireworks….<\/p>\n

The next day we went on a harbor cruise hosted by Sam’s business law professor.\u00a0\u00a0 My<\/em><\/strong> business law professor’s idea of a fun time is letting us watch clips from The Insider in class.\u00a0 The cruise had lots of good food (and drink) and lasted about two hours but never left the marina.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At one point we passed by a giant sailboat and a giant yacht<\/a>.\u00a0 Later when we were coming back in the same yacht was on its way out of the marina.\u00a0 Have you ever seen a yacht with a helicopter on it?\u00a0 Now you have…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What flag is that on the back?\u00a0 It almost looks like the flag for Bermuda, with a union jack on red with some kind of crest… but the crest is different.\u00a0 I tried to find it on google with no luck.\u00a0 The enormous sailboat that was docked next to this yacht had the exact same flag on the back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
