With the last day of our museum pass looming we had to face the Louvre. Don't get us wrong but it is rather daunting in comparision to other museums. We did our research and found out what time the English guided tour was and headed out promptly. We arrived and managed to find the correct department (no small feat) and were faced with "So sorry mesdames, we are canceled for today!" So we gritted our teeth, clutching our guides of the Louvre, parted our ways and agreed to meet in 2 hours. So first thing, the guide has little relation to the actual route you will take and without a certain level of physic power and excellent French you may be at a disadavantage...You can't keep 2 old dames down. We made it to Paris and this would not be our Waterloo. Saw wonderful things and too many to relate in one go. We traded hints and clues when we met and headed back into the fray after lunch. We cannot imagine the crush in the summer. While we were there it was busy but at least comfortable.
Here are a few pieces of art that we saw today.
