10th day in Los Angeles by Niklas Lindskog
Hi!
Here's a short report from my 10th day in Los Angeles, Wednesday, March 4th.
* Read the guidebook while eating my pizza breakfast to get an idea of what to do on this day.
* Came up with the Getty Museum. Google said it would be almost 2 hours to get there with public transportation and they were correct. But it was fun to ride the subway and buses and do the trek.
* The Getty was really an amazing place. Gorgeous architecture up on a hill bathing in beautiful light and an amazing view! And a top class art museum of course. And free! :-)
* Started with the Michelangelo exhibition. They showed the drawings he did in preparation for his great paintings and sculptures. He burned most of these drawings but about 600 out of an estimated 28 000 remain.
* Went on to see some European painting from the 16th to 19th centuries and then saw the very nice photography section. I had planned to take a walk around the gardens, but the warm weather was gone and I made my way to the exit.
* Stopped at Beverly Hills/Rodeo Drive to get some shots while there was still some low sunlight. It was too cold though, so it was a short session.
* Clicked away in the subway and while walking the few blocks back at the hotel.
Take care, everybody!
Niklas
