The Louvre: Part I


It turns out the Louvre is like a small city. We spent three hours exploring and were done when Isabella realized we had only seen part of one wing.
We managed to see both the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo, and Isabella had the audio-tour which she enjoyed. It was amazing wandering around and seeing so many grand pieces of art. Around every corner there was literally another masterpiece.
A quick break in the mall below for a fancy food court meal (Isabella chose Japanese, of course), and we headed back to buy some postcards. We came across a bunch of Monet, Manet and other masters' pieces pictured in the cards that we hadn't seen anywhere upstairs.
And so, we are going back this week to solve the mystery of the location of these paintings!!
