The Getty Museum

The J. Paul Getty Museum - Los Angeles, CA, USA



Here at John's Island we are digging into our photo archives. In January, 2006, John visited the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Here are some photos to help us refresh our memory of that trip.

Tram that takes you from parking area to
entrance of the Museum







Every tourist destination has a gift shop.

We enjoyed an al fresco luncheon here.

    Beautiful blue skies and interesting photos, John. It's hard to imagine that 2006 was so long ago now. I was living in Colorado then, and still working. :-)

    I thought about visiting that place when we went out to L.A. a few years ago! There's just SO much to do in California, it makes me wish I lived there. It takes a long plane ride to get there and there are about a billion places to visit once you're there, you can't fit it all in during one visit!
