Went with my mom to see the Japanese art from the Price collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art today. Originally, we were going to go early in the morning to beat out any crowd that would be there, but we both overslept. It didn’t matter because there wasn’t the stuffy and close contact crowd we were expecting.
While we were headed there, my mom was confused because she thought it was at the Japanese-American Museum, and not LACMA. I started worrying that she might be right because I was paying more attention to the grapes I was eating than the Japanese TV show that was airing the segment about the Price collection. My sister confirmed over the phone that it was indeed at LACMA. Point for me!
When we got there, a tour group had just started and we decided to join them. I think that made the experience so much better. She explained a lot of stuff about Jakuchu, Rosetsu, and other artists in the exhibit.
We were at the museum for about 3 hours.
For dinner, we went to Mitsuwa in hopes of getting more food from the Hokkaido Fair. Unfortunately, all the good stuff was gone (shishamoooooo… *sob*). We ended up getting some very expensive dried scallops, not so expensive dried salmon, and some dried clams.
