Mona Who?

Today we fought our way through the throngs of tour groups at the Louvre Museum. We saw a great overview of Greek sculpture, Italian and French painting, and Egyptian antiquities, but we also left thousands of pieces of art to see on another trip to Paris! The Mona Lisa was especially crazy; with all of the people taking pictures, you would think it was Brittany Spears. We didn't even try to get right up to the painting. We admired it, and the crowd, from afar.

This afternoon we walked the length of the Champs-Elysees, and ended at the Arc de Triomphe. We enjoyed yet another picturesque panoramic view from the top of this majestic monument. Tonight, we're off to a picnic dinner in front of the Eiffel Tower. Oh la la!
