Penguin Parkour

More first timers, one of whom was inspired along with Gio and Felix at Science Geek Summer Camp in Santa Fe this past July.

If this doesn't qualify as an awesome place then I have no idea what does. It also highlights the importance of not working on Sunday and I suppose proper breathing during parkour along with a well practiced hair flip.

LA Wedding parkour photobomb!

Parkouring the Griffith observatory above LA.

Fun fact: Super rich guy Griffith J. Griffith, who donated the money for Griffith park and the observatory to the city of Los Angeles upon his death in 1919, had 16 years earlier shot his wife in the face as she knelt in front of him at a hotel in Santa Montica. Amazingly, she didn't die, but lost an eye and was disfigured, as well as suffered a fractured shoulder blade jumping out a window to escape (parkour?).
In court it was revealed that although thought to be a teetotaler, he was a secret drunk with paranoid delusions, and he somehow ($$$$) served only 2 years in prison. They got divorced.

Despite all this, the park and observatory really are very lovely, and Band of Horses sound-checking made an awesome soundtrack for our hike.
