Mulholland Drive

Today, Justin and I took the scenic route.

There was one popular outlook along Mulholland just above the Hollywood Bowl that had good views of Los Angeles.

On the way back to the car, I was inspired by the local flora:

The original plan was to then drive to the beach to take pictures at sunset, but we were inspired by a scenic overlook (one of the many which we were frequently cautioned about by periodic road signs almost more common than the "DO NOT SMOKE" signs).

Oh what I would give to live in this house...

I get far too distracted by silhouette sunset pictures...

And I was all too enraptured by the sky...

But I took far too many pictures, and at some point, it was time to go home...
