The Getty

The day after we arrived (a day late because we were luckily enough to get bumped the night before), we went to the J Paul Getty Center in Los Angeles. It was beautiful weather, and we spent most of the time just wandering the grounds admiring the amazing architecture. It's a group of buildings housing different exhibits. Tyra really enjoyed the minute detail in the gold metal work on the furniture pieces. In the main hall there was a huge sculpture by Tim Hawkinson called Uberorgan. It played every hour on the hour, you can hear it in the clip in the picasa album. After Grandpa Lee and Pam left with my Uncle Terry and Aunt Kathy Tyra really wanted to see the garden, and it seems that gardens are her favorite thing...
