The Getty

This morning we took the boys to The Getty. We all really enjoyed ourselves. And how could you not with a view like this outside every window! I couldn't believe how big the museum was. We obviously couldn't see the whole thing. There were four different buildings with at-least two floors in each building plus there are gardens outside. Some of our favorites: "Christ's entry into Brussels" by Ensor.

"The Bridge over Water-Lily Pond" by Monet.
"The Rue Monssier with Flags" by Manet.
"Irises" by Vincent van Gogh.
William walked around with me a lot picking out his favorite art pieces. In the statue department, William made sure I took a picture of every statue. There was a family museum. The boys had fun reading in an 18th century King's bed.


Playing in the different exhibits.
Coloring masks. Or as for Harrison, playing with his reflection in the mirror :)
If you come visit Los Angeles, I highly recommend a visit to The Getty.
