Echo Park Swan Boats
Swan boats on Echo Park Lake in LA. Pedal past the fountain and the lotus beds, skyline behind.
Rent one of the big swan pedal boats and take a slow loop around Echo Park Lake, past the fountain and the lotus beds, with the downtown skyline rising behind the palm trees. Take turns pedaling and taking photos, and get the classic shot: your whole swan with the skyline behind it. Then each pick a spot on the shore where you'd have a picnic next time.
Good with friends, family, and kids
