Getty Museum on Black Friday

Finally, here are the pics from the Getty Museum! It ended up being a little over overcast and chilly in LA on Friday afternoon so I headed to the museum. Some of my Pittsburgh friends who have been to LA recommended the museum to me. I had never even heard of it. It's a giant museum on a big hill that looks over the whole city. It's free admission too, which is nice.

I wasn't able to fully enjoy the museum because I was really tired from walking all over Santa Monica and Venice Beach the day before. The inside exhibits had old classic European paintings, a French decor exhibit, a sketch exhibit that presented humor of the 1800's, and old photography of SF and Yosemite. I want to go back soon and get some better pics, hopefully on a sunnier day.

So by "a little over overcast and chilly in LA" you mean like 65 degrees, right?

haha, yes I mean gray skies (most likely smog) and 65 degrees. I even have a cold right now. I never thought I'd need cold medicine in San Diego!
