Lotus Festival schedule for today, Saturday

No lotus flowers in the lake this year, but they are for sale to take home!

We headed down to Echo Park Lake early to get ahold of the Lotus Festival schedule, which is available to anyone at the information booth in the middle of the festival booths. After the jump: Saturday’s schedule and parking tips. You can read about the history of the Lotus Festival by clicking here.

And the big question is always: Will there be fireworks this year?? They didn’t last year, but we will find out. Follow us on Twitter and we’ll announce the info as soon as we learn more!

It appears two of the public parking lots in Echo Park (there are three lots behind Sunset) are restricted, permit parking only. The signs are confusing and not well-placed so keep a sharp eye out for them.In past years they’ve used the elementary schools nearby, so we’re not sure why they’d take up the public parking options.

Street parking is available but minimal – you’re better off parking on Glendale Boulevard or, though the neighbors aren’t fond of it, in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Better yet – walk! If you’re in the ‘hood grab some ice water, a hat or an umbrella, and a fan (it’s hot out there!) and truck it using your own two legs.

See you there!

    Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re
    working with? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near
    future but I’m having a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

    I’ve been browsing online more than 3 hours these days, but I by
    no means found any fascinating article like yours. It is lovely worth enough for
    me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made just
    right content material as you did, the internet will be much more helpful than ever before.

    and our whole community will be thankful to you.

  7. crescimento peniano says:

    I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more
    in the way of content so people could connect with it better.

    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or
    2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

    How long does a copyright last on newspaper articles?. . If a service copies newspapers articles and then posts it in a database on the Internet, is there also a copyright on the Internet content?.

    I’m amazed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s both educative
    and entertaining, and let me tell you, you’ve hit the nail on the head.
    The problem is an issue that not enough people are
    speaking intelligently about. Now i’m very happy that I found
    this in my search for something relating to this.

    Is there any way you can remove me from that service?

    Thank you!

    Hi there! Do you know if they make any plugins
    to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked
    hard on. Any recommendations?
