Palais du Louvre, exterior. Pretty glass pyramids, pre-revolutionary architechture, you know the deal... |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
... and interior, the main entrance under the largest pyramid. |
 |
Mona Lisa (La Joconde) - check! |
 |
And a variety of more interesting things... |
 |
... including a very large colection of Mesoppotamian artefacts... |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
... and rather an odd Ancient Egyption baboon-freize. |
 |
|
 |
Centre Pompidou, from a variety of angles... |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
... and water sculptury things. |

Notre Dame de Paris - unfortunately swathed in scaffolding in several places which rather reduced it's phogogenicity... also the fact it was raining, which reduced my patience for walking around to find its best angle :) |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
The Seine - a greener shade of muddy than the Thames, but otherwise very similar realy... |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
... And an excessive number of photos of the Eiffel Tower, which we couldn't get up because the morning's thunderstorm had led to a lightning strike... |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
And from Trocadero. |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
This bridge was closed as we went under it, and parked solid with police buses - another pensions demo (assisted by hundreds of armed Gendarmes) essentially closed the centre of town... fortunately we were going the other way. |
 |
|
 |
More around Pompidou... |
 |
... and the panorama from its roof... |
