LA - J Paul Getty Museum

Our trip from Seattle to Los Angles on the Coast Starlight was the best!  We had great companions.  Everyone was in a good mood.  The food was delicious and the service was better than it's ever been. 
Because of scheduling, we had almost two days in LA.  What to do?
First, a visit to a world class museum, The J Paul Getty.  It was everything I thought it would be. 
The buildings themselves belong in an architectural museum . . .
And then there is the art . . .

Sometimes the art was as much in the observer as the observed . . .

and the special exhibit on Paris . . . wow!


and the gardens . . .


and the views . . .
it was all fabulous!
We could have stayed another four hours, or perhaps even another four days and not seen it all.
Yeah!  I'd like to go back!
