Paris Day 3: Museums

Having been promised rainy weather, we decided to spend our last day in Paris exploring a couple of museums. Amra and I beat the crowd early Sunday morning and were among the first to enter the Louvre. Equipped with a map of the museum, we wondered the numerous halls of the Louvre appreciating its many treasures. Next we toured the Musée D'Orsay, which houses the works of some of our favorite artists from the Impressionist movement. Regrettably, we weren't allowed to take pictures inside. Before catching our train to Vichy, we grabbed some delicious gelato with our friend Ethan, who is currently studying in Paris. We bid our farewells in front of the fountain on Place St. Michel. Au revoir, Paris! A la prochaine fois!
