The Louvre

The Louvre- one of the worlds largest museums, and the most visited museum in the world! It was much bigger than I thought. We decided to go early in the morning- we were first in line. Word is, you get there as early as you can and rush to the Mona Lisa in the Sully wing. This gives you the closest look at her, when the crowds are less full.

This is the Sully wing from the outside.

Audrey and Grace patiently waiting...

Sul loved seeing his name up there...

The Winged Victory.

So much - too much, to look at...

And there she is.... Audrey was so excited! This is the first glimpse of The Mona Lisa. The famous painting is displayed behind bullet-proof glass and a roped off viewing area of about 15 feet circumference.

Q and the girls jockeying for position...

Inspiring!

Sully said he doesn't really feel bad for Jesus because he gets to live again.

The main hall to The Egyptian Antiquities.

The gals and King Tut.

Ramses. This wing inspired me to plan an Egypt family vacation...

Their first view of a real mummy....

I think the kids loved this little troll the best. They had fun making up sounds and stories behind this guy.

And there was a cool a/c vent right in front of this display case. I think we may have spent the majority of our time here.

A view from inside and under the glass pyramid. This is also the main entrance for The Louvre.

We may be still living there when this happens...
