Get Lost in the Louvre Museum
Get ready for a long day. Unless you are just popping in to see the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo and Winged Victory, prepare yourself for the artistic onslaught.
The day we were at The Louvre there was a fantastic Islamic art exhibition and we spent so long there that we didn’t catch up with Miss ML (the famous lady mentioned above).
