union station walking tour, january 2006
saturday was the walking tour of union station for new los angeles conservancy members. i went, and of course took lots of pictures.
while i didn’t pull the bonehead move of taking exposures that were too long (like i did for the city hall tour last week), i think i was a little over-aggressive in cranking up the iso setting (and also just plain forgot when shifting outside sometimes), so some of the pictures aren’t quite as good as they could have been.
after the tour, shannon and i grabbed sandwiches at phillipe’s, even though she long ago expressed her preference for cole’s.
more on the rest of the weekend another time.
all of us ought to retire relatively young
the los angeles times describes travelling in cuba, which is mostly not legal for americans. because that embargo is going to push castro out of power any day now.
