Either sunrise or sunset from the plane - not sure which...I loved looking at the clouds from the plane and the sun made such marvelous colors as it moved across the sky.
This is Sue - trying to sleep on the plane. It was very noisy and a little chilly, so she did her best to combat both! Who needs sleep anyway....
View from the plane. It was neat to see the fields from the air. The land looked very different compared to the U.S.
At the Paris airport. The big sign in the background had letters that flipped when a new flight arrived. It was really cool to watch it work. The big green pillar had 2 or 3 different advertisements inside and rotated.
I am in Paris!!!
My lunch in Paris - a lovely ham and cheese sandwich on a baguette grilled panini style - yummmm!
The famous Moulin Rouge - shows are still performed here today!
The Louvre Museum - the large glass pyramid is the entrance.
Our group in the gallery where the Mona Lisa hangs.
Me and Mona...The most famous painting in the world! Bonus points if you know the name of the painter! The Mona Lisa hangs in the Louvre Museum and is seperated from the crowd by a plexiglass box and a wooden railing. This is about as close as a person can get to the painting. Of course Mona Lisa is not the only thing to see in the Louvre! Every place you look there is something amazing to see, including the building itself.
One of the last stops on the green bus tour was the Eiffel Tower. It was really amazing to stand at the bottom of one of the most famous landmarks in the world. For some reason I expected it to be green?!!
