Paris: Louvre

We decided to visit the Louvre. That's the famous museum at the end of the De Vinci Code with the huge glass pyramids.

It took a while to get in and then get our tickets. We decided to rent the audio guide which are the Nintendo 3DS. They are pretty clever and they can tell where you are and give you the commentary on what you are looking at.

Zoe and Mona

We must have walked a marathon but we didn't see a fifth of the exhibits. We did manage to see the Mona Lisa and some of the Egyptian collection including a real mummy. I did wonder where all the sarcophaguses came from. I assume they must have come from ancient Egyptian tombs which have been ransacked in the past.

The weather has been really nice today. No rain. This morning it was over-cast but this evening has been warm and sunny.
