Today was another packed day that started out having us do a half marathon to make our tour at the Louvre Museum. All for nothing it appeared as Rebecca thought we needed passports to enter so we had to rush to home base to get them and sprint back to Louvre to make our appointment on time. They never asked for passports however. This proves you can't believe everything you read on the internet!
The Louve museum was great. We had a guided tour to help put some context around some other stuff that you were looking at however, our particular tour guide was too knowledgeable. Sometimes she over, exhausted her explanations and made the tour longer than it needed to be, but all in all it was good to have someone to show you around. Lots of Roman and Greek culture in this museum, but also a whole dedicated floor to the Egyptian heritage. I hadn’t been to a museum that had so many hieroglyphic artifacts.
Afterwards we went back to home base to dress up for pictures. We hired a photographer to take some family photos in front of the Eifel Tower.
After the photo shoot, we attended a dinner cruise on the Seine river. This is the main river that runs through the center of town. Very nice dinner with a glass roof so you can see all the sightseeing spots along the river. Very nice intimate dinner with live music. Food choices were good as well. Made it back to home base after midnight but not before some night time shots of the tower 🗼😝Read more
