We had most of Friday free to do whatever we wanted so John and I took off in the Jeep to see Nethercutt Museum (he is the co-founder of Merle Norman) but they were closed for the holidays so we then went to the Getty Villa in Malibu. It was a great place to spend the day. The museum is a replica of a villa from first century Rome. It houses over 1200 Greek, Roman and Etruscan antiquities. It had several gardens, fountains, lots of statues, busts and other items of interest. When we left, we decided to go up the Pacific Coast Highway and then cut over to Santa Clarita where we are staying. Our GPS did not like our choice! She complained all the way! But we only got so far and then had to turn around due to mud slides. This route took us thru 2 canyons with steep, twisty roads.
We got back just in time for happy hour, dinner and New Years Eve party. The minute the ball fell in New York City, we yelled Happy New Year in CA, the hosts packed up the goodies and we were back in the RV at 9:15 PM! Luckily friends from home called to wish us a Happy New Year so the evening was extended somewhat!
