Palomar Mountain

Time: Oct-20-2012
Place: Palomar Mountain
Company: Mom-in-law, Wife, Daughter
Highlights: Searching for nearby (one-day picnic) places led to this mountain with breath-taking views. Thankfully, the day we visited, it was a cloudy day. That is to say, it was cloudy for those on the ground. For those on Palomar, we were above the clouds. As if we were characters in those mythological serials where Gods and Angels walk and talk on clouds. Such was the scenery everywhere. Very similar to what we see from airplane. Also went on a short trail - Paavani's first. Missed visiting the observatory - incidentally I had seen a documentary couple of years ago on how the huge lens used in this observatory made its way from East coast to where it is situated now. On the way back, also went to Palo casino. Visited couple of lakes and drove amidst clouds while coming back. A short memorable trip.
