Yesterday we went to a botanic garden. To be specific, we went to The Huntington. It was beautiful. Here are some things I took pictures of:
The desert garden:
The Japanese garden:
Part of the bonsai collection:
The Chinese garden:
There were beautiful old buildings there and art galleries as well. We didn’t realize until it was too late, but they have Gainsborough’s “Blue Boy” there! Dang it! I would have loved to see that.
After that, we headed to an outlet mall. I keep trying to find shorts. I didn’t get any, but I did see the giant sand sculpture they had in the courtyard.
I didn’t buy anything, but if I had a bunch of money, I would have gotten two things. A Swarovski crystal Superman for $500
And these shorts, which were $70
I fly back to Maui today.
Hawaiian #HA55 Depart LA 12:00pm Arrive Kahului 2:40pm
What?!?! Every day is better than the last! That sand castle is astounding! If I remember correctly, they use Elmer’s glue in that kind of thing. So cool. Also, that first photo looks like aliens have invaded.
You wouldn’t get both Superman and Batman and buy a little crystal coffee cup?
Is that in Pasadena? I think I’ve been there – a long time ago. Looks amazing!
Oh those gardens! Can you imagine if you got to work there! Id never go home… crystal superman! Isn’t that ironic. Love those shorts but i guess they REALLY love them! Some things are just ridiculously priced. Are they made of gold?? Was the material from ancient times and found in a castle? Did it take them 5 years to make each pair? You could get 7 pair of shorts at a goodwill along with lots of other fun stuff for $70. Good decision brad.
