Our Weekend at the Getty

We joke that the Getty is our home as much as our home is our home! In a way it's better: it's free, we never have to clean it up, AND the views and art are unlimited. Truthfully, though, I head out to see the views while Joe checks out the art collection. This weekend we were at the Getty both days.

Saturday we debated about taking the bus to the show. Yeah, it's only $6 parking, but the bus is $1.25 and it's a 4 minute drive. We settled on the bus. On the ride to the show, we heard so many different languages: Russian, Spanish, German, who knows what else. Everyone on the bus was happy and nice. Afterward the show, we were greeted by REALLY GOOD opera singers waiting at our bus stop (2 young ladies with amazing voices!), it seemed like taking the bus was the right choice. Once we got dropped off at home, we crossed the street headed to the 17th floor of the Hotel Angeleno for a drink (doorman, "Hello Sir, hello Madam, welcome") . Sitting on top of the world, that's what it felt like. We had our own table overlooking all of LA - the people looked like ants and the cars like tiny light shuttles. No pics of the bar - I think it's called West - but lots of pics from the Getty. CLICK ON THE PICS TO ENLARGE. THEY ARE FREAKISHLY BIG!!!!
