We’ve had a quiet Thanksgiving this year. We had lunch at a place that does dim sum in the Valley, A&W BBQ Seafood Restaurant. They do dim sum til 2:30P and you need to try it if you’re here – they server it Hong Kong style with metal carts that are pushed through the room. You select steamers, plates, bowls… and it’s all wonderful!<\/p>\n

On Friday we went to the Museum of Natural History in LA – our first time there, they have a nice exhibit. Lots of dinosaur bones, interesting exhibits about mammals and what I thought was an especially nice exhibit on how man developed. If you like the Field Museum<\/a> in Chicago, you’ll probably enjoy this one also.<\/p>\n

On\u00a0 to the photos!<\/p>\n
