Outdoor Movies

There are so many neat things to try out here in LA! While in NY in Summer '01 I fell in love with the Bryant Park Outdoor Movie Screenings that Meliss and Jord and I enjoyed. The tradition continues... I got my 'outdoor movie fix' a few summers here by heading to the 'Hollywood Forever Cemetery,' once with Spence and Rach and Beej. But the listing of movies didn't strike Spence' and my fancy this year, so we excitedly tried out a couple other spots! This weekend we headed to the Pier with some friends to watch 'Hunger Games' on a big blowup screen they set up. It was a delightful event through 'Front Porch Cinema.'

Here's Spence air-keyboarding to the music they played before the movie. :) It was blissful to chill there on the Pier. Our other enjoyable outdoor movie this summer was a few weeks ago when we saw, 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs' with some friends at the LACMA.

Here we are in the 'yellow spaghetti' as our friends' kids call it- it's really neat plastic strings hanging from the roof in the outdoor courtyard. Fun!! It feels cool to walk through. We'll see how the outdoor movie viewing trend continues. I will keep you posted.
