Notre Dame & The Louvre - September 2022

After visiting Sainte-Chapelle in the morning, we walked by nearby Notre Dame, which was still closed from the fire, and then visited the Louvre.

The fire at Notre Dame was in 2019, three years before we visited. There was still work being done on the exterior, so we didn't get to go inside.

It absolutely poured off and on all day. But it really made for some great background.

I wish I'd had my good camera with me when this rainbow ended right at the Louvre, but I'm just glad that I even got this photo. It was a really cool thing to see.

I was going to say, "Look, ma, no hands!" But then I realized that has probably been said about the Venus de Milo approximately a billion times.

The Mona Lisa was only a little bit bigger than a sheet of copy paper. And there were just so many people there.
