ArtFest 2006

Andrea and I did the Louvre and the Musee D'Orsay today...a lot for one day, but we tried to pick our spots within each...


Teeny little Andrea on the right side of the fountain...this is walking through the back courtyard of the Louvre...the place goes on for miles.


Winged victory (Nike) from Samothrace...pretty cool.


View of Paris from top floor of the Louvre, some Napoleonic arch lower left, Eiffel Tower, and in the far distance on the right you can see the Arc de Triomphe...the walk from one arch to the other takes you through the Tuileries and up the Champs Elysee.


Oh so fancy toilet in the place where we ate lunch...can't be afraid to squat if you need to...thanks for the foot pedals guys, wouldn't want to fall in.


Me trying to be Cartier-Bresson taking a picture of a guy in the Musee D'Orsay...


Face in a bowl in the Musee D'Orsay...


Statues in the D'Orsay...


Ceiling of the Musee D'Orsay...it used to be the train station for the Paris-Orleans line...impressive building, bigger than Grand Central.


Andrea toward the end of our tour, beginning to get grumpy...


Obligatory "Paris is for Lovers" shot...
