That’s me in the middle. Enjoying a book & waiting for my hubby to bring us back some lunch!!
Great views!
View from the inside looking out.
Of course this museum has such beautiful artwork, such as the Mona Lisa.
But my favorite part? The basement. Here is my sister standing by the model of what the Louvre once was.
Here’s the ACTUALL columns in tacked. It absolutely amazes me......
No matter how many times you walk this gigantic museum you’ll always see something new !
