We ventured back to the Louvre Museum. Upon arrival, they informed us that the workers were on strike - France at it's best :). Just as we were getting ready to put plan B intoplace, they opened. So we broke up into 3 small groups and wondered around the museum - the pictures above are of Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory and of course La Joconde (Mona Lisa).
After the museum we walked along the Seine, stopped at a few of the bouquiniste (book/souvenir) sellers and made our way to the Latin Quarter for lunch.
After lunch we broke into 2 groups - one went to Galerie LaFayette for some last minute shopping, the other to the Catacombs......unfortunately even though we called ahead they were closed.
We met up in Montmartre to see the Sacre Coeur - then walked through the Moulin Rouge area (which had about 6 blocks of sex shops - yikes!)....to dinner.
