Having lunch at Café des Initiés. I just finished checking out only a small part of the Louvre. I heard that if you spent 30 seconds in front of each piece of art that it would take 6 days to look at everything. After checking it out for a few hours I could easily see that being the case. A few observations and recommendations about the Louvre:
- There are 3 entrances, don't use the main one it will take you for ever to get in. You'll be exhausted before you start.
- Don't try and see everything.
- There is no better day of the week to go to the Louvre, expect Tuesday, they're closed.
- Put down the camera, really. Do you honestly think you are going to take a better picture then the museum did? You can buy a book for less the 20€ and see all the pieces. Look at the art think about the art. How does it make you feel?
One more thing, the Mona Lisa isn't in the same place that the movie The da Vinci Code would have you believe.
