The Getty Art Museum. Saturday. July 9th.

This enormous museum guards some of the most famous pictures and sculptures all around the globe. After all the fun we've had yesterday in Hollywood, I was not sure if there was gonna be any improvements in the levels of surprisement in my mind. We had breakfast early and got into the bus. The journey was long, but it was worth it. I could see Monet, Van Gogh, and many more artists' work. I could scent the smell of the old paint on the walls, and the italian stones, which formed the walls and the floor of that marvelous and magical place. We, my friends and I, had a great time today admiring all those great creations and its stories. I took over eighty pictures. Something that I liked a lot was actually being abke ti see the brushprints in the paintings. Somethink i didn't lie so much was that a guard called me to say that I could not stay too close to the exhibitions. There were statues too, and there were made with so much detail it seemed like it was going to jump alive. Such a shame I was not able to touch them. All the halls had a similar smell, but I could not tell what. It's just museum smell. After that, we went all together for some lunch at the museum's cafeteria, and relaxed in its beautiful gardens, lying on the lawn. It was so perfectly cut, and surrounded of beautiful arrangements of tall pink  small cute flowers, and benches, and sidewalks. There were much families spending the afternoon there. It  was so peaceful to hear the children laugh and see them jump all over.At the end of the day, we enjoyed a short part of a concert that was been played there by a not so well known band. ut someone who was well known appeared sneaky way around people: Drew Barrymore! Jeffrey just called us really calmed and said to us that she was there! I could not believe it. I was at just 5 meters from Drew Barrymore. I could not take a picture because she was covering her face with her hair and I had no memory to film. I either could ask for an autograph as she was leaving so fast. Anyway, I was really happy! After that, we went back for meeting our bus in the parking lot and, for our surprise, it was all full of lights and funny-shaped seats, like a bar or a pub, where we could sit in a circle, and dance to the loud music! We could not feel tireness until we got here. I have no more energy.But I'm sure I've made a good We went the two hours of journey with that loud and funny music dancing, screaming and singing at the top of our loungs. It was a great day visiting this wonderful place, and hanging out with friends.
