The Post Gazette says that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie took time out from making cobra proof clothes to take a tour of Fallingwater, the famous house in southwestern Pennsylvania designed in 1935 by architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The daytrip was part of Angelina's birthday present to Brad, who turns 43 next week. Cara Armstrong, Fallingwater's Curator of Education, said:
"Brad said he had wanted to experience Fallingwater ever since he took an architectural history course in college. He and I talked quite a bit about design and art. He was incredibly well informed about architecture. (They were) very gracious and very engaged in the house. As we say in the Midwest, you could tell their mothers raised them right. Brad said he had a visual sense of Fallingwater but experiencing it in person, hearing the sound of the waterfall cascading under the house and smelling the wood from the fireplace, was better than anything he could have imagined."
After the tour, Jolie had champagne and caviar sent in, which the couple shared in a private birthday celebration in Fallingwater's living room. Afterward, they invited the staff to join them. "He's so hard to buy for," Jolie told the staff.If these two were any cuter, Angelina would have given birth to a baby panda in a little cowboy outfit.
