Day 2 Part 2 - Le Louvre AKA Huge Museum

Bagette's on the street on our way to Le Louvre
A pee in a Paris fountain of course
A fountain outside of Le Louvre

That glass pyramid is the entrance to Le Louvre
Fountains walking to the glass triangle
Door into the glass triangle
A lot of naked male statues
Stairs going up to.....at the top....Winged Victory
Winged Victory
Side view of the Winged Victory
Here she is.....Mona Lisa...behind glass of course....hard to get a picture with the glare and being so far away.
This is the crowd that came to stare at Mona Lisa....we were more impressed with the giant picture behind Tim....no one seemed to care about that picture though.
Venus de Milo ~ goddess of love
They never found her arms....
Napoleon's apartment is in one wing of the Louvre.....it is massive.
The ceiling above the chandelier....and we think crown molding finishes off the ceiling.
His office
Living room
Dinning room
Le Louvre is huge and we definitely got our exercise walking through this museum.
