It's Sunday and we're sitting in the LA airport waiting for our flight to Auckland. We've had 4 days of beautiful weather and have enjoyed seeing LA. After the Getty, we spent Saturday on a tour of historic buildings in downtown LA. Here's a link to the Bradbury building, built in the 1890's with a beautfiul interior and this gorgeous atrium. http://www.greatbuildings.com/cgi-bin/gbi.cgi/Bradbury_Building.html/cid_3118228.html . We then went to the Disney Music Theatre, a Frank Gehry building. Stunning and very different from the Beaux Arts and Art Deco buildings we had just seen. Here's a link to the Disney Music Center http://www.musiccenter.org/about/venue_wdch.html .

I also had the wonderful experience of connecting with an old college friend, whom I hadn't see in 40 years. Nancy and I had a wonderful lunch and vowed to not let the span for our next lunch be so long.
