For the next two days of our trip, we booked a car from Alamo. So we packed our bags, left hotel around 8am and took FlyAway shuttle bus to LAX to pick up our car around 930am.

We paid US$ 8.00 per pax for one way ticket but its US$ 9.00 now.
We then drove back to hotel, checked out, loaded our bags onto the car, bought breakfast and were on way to Griffith Observatory, for a closer view of Hollywood sign. There is free parking available at the observatory parking lot but we had to wait a few minutes for the lot. Even then, we visited on a weekday!
If you are interested in hiking, you can try the 3 miles trail from the parking lot towards the sign.

I would love to hike to the sign as 3-miles trek sounded quite manageable. However, we were quite short on time as we needed to head to Palm Springs. Hence, after half an hour, we headed out around noon.
We reached Ontario Mills after an hour drive. It was meant to be just lunch break but I ended up staying there till late afternoon as sales was just too good to miss out on :D
My very first Chipotle meal and life has never been the same since.

We resumed our drive around 5 o'clock and reached Desert Hills Premium Outlet around 6pm. Of course, we shopped and shopped till closing time at 9pm. We were not very hungry so bought takeaway dinner to eat at the hotel (Best Western Inn).
Adios!
