The Hempsteads go to Paris - Day 2

Our second day started slowly. A little extra sleep made up for our long day the day before.

First stop, the Louvre.

We all loved I.M. Pei's pyramid. Such an elegant solution for a new entrance to this museum.

Room by room, every turn presented another great work of art. As we looked for the Mona Lisa and Ancient Egyptian works, we happened across the Victory of Samothrace  and the Venus de Milo.
Also some great tile work from Iran.
Then to the Pompidou for some crepes and a nice view.





And dinner at Kim and Dons favorite Algerian joint.
