Spending the day in Rome

Saturday M and I decided to celebrate our anniversary at the Getty Villa in Malibu.  This has been on our LA to-do list for quite awhile so it was perfect.  The museum wasn't crowded at all due to Carmageddon on the 405 this weekend.  

Hercules-what a fine man!

Loved this fountain with the mosaic tile

The beautiful fountains at the Villa

Mr & Mrs-Happy 4 years!

Dionysus-God of Wine
He pretty much had the perfect spot in the entire museum 

The herb/vegetable garden

Beautiful jewelry 

Gold wreath 

Hanging out with Aphrodite, Goddess of Love
This was such an educational day for both of us.  I studied four years of Latin in high school and M loved learning about the underworld.  I would highly recommend it if you are ever in the area.  Make sure to reserve your tickets in advance, since they are free they sell out quickly.

I love your dress! I am so mad I didn't take advantage of visiting the Getty when we lived down there!
