A Beautiful Monday at the Reagan Museum and Downtown Los Angeles
Last night we stayed near Thousand Oaks - near where Ronald Reagan lived. They have built a spectacular library and museum on a mountain overlooking Simi Library. They also have the old "Air Force One" in a airy indoor display.
After the museum - we drove the freeway to center city Los Angeles. In downtown - we visited the City Hall of "Dragnet" fame. Nancy also had to explore the Los Angeles Public Library. We visited the central market for lunch.
At 5:00 PM we decided to join the infamous LA Rush Hour Traffic. We set the GPS for our hotel in Yorba Linda - and just followed the arrows on the screen. It was about 30 miles to our hotel in traffic that was bumper to bumper - 5 lanes across going each way. It was stop and go most of the way. It took us a little over an hour to cover the 30 miles.
Tomorrow morning we will visit the Nixon library and birthplace - then head south to our hotel in La Jolla for our last night in California.
The pictures are - Harry with Ronnie at the museum - Air Force One (707 version) - Los Angeles City Hall - Los Angeles Library - and Nancy in the main hall of the LA Library.
