Over my spring break, I was able to take a much needed vacation to visit friends in Los Angeles. My only previous experience with the city was due to my very stressful return flight from New Zealand, when I was not impressed with the layer of smog that extended over the city, nor with the apparent showerless state of LAX.
Fine, I'll admit it's not that bad.
(Although don't misconstrue that to mean that I would ever want to live there, I love my clean air and mountains very much, thank you.)
We spent one day doing a little shopping in Santa Monica, and then after a little bit of beach time, walked down Santa Monica Pier.
Over the weekend, we went to the LACMA for the food trucks and socializing. We didn't actually make it into the museum, but hey! At least I got to see this famous exhibit!
A trip to the Getty was also made. I wasn't quite as impressed with any of the exhibits as a whole*, but the views were spectacular!
It was a fairly laid-back trip overall, it wasn't packed full of fun and excitement but I didn't need that. It was just really nice to get out of town for a week and do a few new things, and spend some time with some people that I love.
*of course I like the Ansel Adams exhibit, I'll take any opportunity to view his work up close and personal! I just mean that it was so small! All of the exhibits I was interested in were.
