The Getty
Few museums – even in LA – can match the grandeur of The Getty. The gardens, angles, landscaping and views are all meticulously laid out. So much so that you could spend a full afternoon simply appreciating the strange beauty of both the 405 and the Pacific Ocean from The Getty’s vantage point. Now, museum-goers… Read More The Getty

San Pedro is the epitome of a small town, coastal community. It has its own charm – snow-capped mountains on one side, tiny lighthouse and sheer cliffs leading to the Pacific on the other. It’s also hugely gentrified in some parts and crowds the skyline with industry, home to Fort MacArthur AFB… and the perfect backdrop… Read More San Pedro
