This morning's excursion was to the Louvre. It was also our first excursion all together on the metro. It's an interesting process to try and get 40 people on the same car going the same way on a busy Paris line but we made it.
Everyone went to see the Mona Lisa and some of the other significant pieces but then took their own path and own time through the museum. Some were finished quickly and others spent hours there. Then everyone had free time and did their own thing. Many went to the Musee d'Orsay, some to Notre Dame, other interesting spots and of course shopping.
It started raining in the afternoon so we had to change our plans a bit for the evening. The original idea was Mont Martre to see the street artists but they wouldn't have been out in the weather so we walked the Champs Elysee and then did an evening Seine River cruise. Its a beautiful city with all the lights.
Remember - Arnoud also posts pictures everyday we have internet. Check them out at http://www.explorica.com/Tour-Diaries/Tour-Diary.aspx?code=YDAvo1jBlFrmqD20AbMdfw%3d%3d&diaryDate=07/02/2012&imageNum=2
