The Louvre

Day 2

This morning we helped Jon part of the way to the Paris airport and then we began our day at the Louvre.  First, we walked through the Red Light District to find the Moulin Rouge on our way to the Metro.

Then we made our way through town to see the master pieces at the Louvre.  Once inside the museum, we tried to see everything!  However, it is much more realistic to split the museum up over a few days than it is to try and see it all in one day.  But we certainly tried and were exausted afterwards.
