Il fait pleut...






Well, the Musée D'Orsay was still on stike so we decided to go on to the Centre Pompidieu for some modern art. Rain, rain go AWAY! Then off to the Musée des Arts Decoratifs to see Ralph Lauren's fancy cars and have a tour of the Animal exhibit. No pics of the cars allowed, but we had an amazing tour. Our guide was funny and engaging and gave us lots of history and background. Then a few hours in the Tuileries. Finally a blazing self-guided tour (three hours) of the Louvre. Students talked about the paintings and artists that they had researched. A very late dinner near the Eiffel tower.

SO JEALOUS!!!! C’est la vie. But really, you all seem to be having an amazing time and it’s so cool that you’re finding so many Space Invaders! Don’t have too much fun without me☺
