Since there was such a long gap in my postings, I have lots of photos I can share. I found these from a trip we took in 2021.

I wanted to go to this museum every time we saw it from Interstate 5.

You park at the bottom of the hill and take a trolley up to the museum. It’s organized and pleasant.

The grounds alone are worth seeing. It’s so pretty.

A view from the Villa, a separate part of the Getty estate museum that we visited the next day. You can see the ocean in the background.
The Villa had antiquities. They were all interesting, but this one was my best photo. It is Sleeping Cupid from the Helenistic period, Roman, circa 1-100. This is one of my favorite periods because I happened to take an art history class on it in college.

Having lunch in the restaurant is nice because you can sit on the patio and look at the houses and hills.

In looking through the pictures, I just realized I have this! The end of Route 66, which I talked about in my Grand Canyon post a couple posts back, is here on Santa Monica pier. I had completely forgotten we stood on the end of the road.

I can’t claim to have done Route 66, but I did two parts of it quite by accident.
