L.A Crawl - A Day at The Academy

During Thanksgiving of 2021, we took grandma to the newly opened Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. Our day started at Rice & Nori in Little Tokyo first. Then we made it to our time slot in early afternoon at the Academy Museum. After the museum, we hit K-Town for dinner at Hangari Bajirak Kalguksu. Since the night is still young, we made it to the Griffith Observatory for night view of Los Angeles, then back to K-Town for dessert at Oakobing before we reluctantly ended the night.
