Day 40 and 41

Day 40 - didnt quite get through the 14 km of artwork in the Lourve - the place is massive. Got the highlights with the guide though. It took 3 centuries to build.

Photo 3 - biggest painting - The Wedding at Cana - 7 square metres
Photo 4 - the guide believes some of the inspitation for the Nike "tick" came from this statue

We then went on a dinner cruise on the Seine River.

Day 41 - Managed to navigate two trains to Montmarte. It is known for its artistic history and Basilica of Sacre Coure. We took the Petit train around the area and then the funicular (cable car) to the bottom of the Basilica.
