Still, I made the most of my lunch break by leaving the courthouse and walking around some of my favorite places in downtown Los Angeles. And I took pictures for you. With my phone.
This is the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.
The Walt Disney Concert Hall.
That's City Hall in the background, but the real reason I took this picture was the aloe plants that were in bloom. This flower is one of my favorite things about winter in Southern California. I love it.
And I took this one just outside the courthouse. It's for my New Zealand friends. :)
I'll be back at the courthouse on Thursday for the continuation of jury selection. So I expect I'll have more pictures for you on Friday.By the way, have you checked in with the Redpath family lately? They're a family of four, from our homeschool group, who are traveling the world for a year. And they've just been to Stonehenge!

Wonderful pics! Thank you for posting them.
And yes, I get e-mail updates of the Redpath family adventures and I saw their post on Stonehenge.
Awesome stuff.
:)
That aloe plant in bloom is so cool!!
I'll have to check out the Redpath family!
I served on a jury a few years ago and it really WAS interesting, also a little appalling though, to hear what supposedly educated and open-minded jurors really think . . .
It was a stabbing case, in a dry-cleaning dispute between a love-triangle of employees and a supervisor who tried to intervene (he got hurt the worst, showed his healing scar in court, exciting and sad and like voyeurism all at the same time, and I never felt the same way about what goes on in the back of dry cleaning shops!)
Haha - love the pic of the fern fronds - very Kiwi.
Loved Stonehenge when we went there too - smaller than expected though.
