"Gloomy"
Getty Musueam, probably one of my all-time favorite places. The trip here usually consists of spending 3-4 hours walking around outside the building checking out the gardens, water features, the views of LA skyline and the sculptures, and 10+ minutes looking at the exhibits indoors. There is nothing wrong with the exhibits indoors, the place has Van Gogh’s, Monet’s and other famous artists, they also have sculptures from 1600’s to more modern times. The problem is, when you spend $1 Billion with a B in 1980’s money!, on the building that houses the art works, one rarely finds the time to enter the actual building. On the 17th however, it was cold and dreary weather with little rain, so after spending 10 miserable minutes outside, Eva and I decided (mostly Eva) that we would go look at the exhibits. It was actually pretty nice, having seen ad’s around the city for the new exhibit they had it was nice to actually see it. Another crazy thing about the Getty is that the parking lot may be full (we had to go down 3 levels to find parking) but you’ll rarely feel congested from people.
Speaking of people congestion, on the way back home from LA, we stopped at the Cabazon outlets near Palm Springs. The Coach Outlet store probably had half of China’s entire population. Thanks to all the confusion at the Coach store we missed Seth Rogen (Knocked-Up, Funny People, Green Hornet, etc) at the Banana Republic store. After a two hour detour there we finally made it home before 11pm.
