Day 26 – Paris

Another big day, today is museum day but first a visit to the Notre Dame cathedral, the RER takes us straight to the front door and we manage to get inside just as mass was finishing and the organ was playing, very loudly and filling the whole cathedral. After doing a lap of the cathedral we head off to the Musee D’orsay to take in the art, once again there is a long line of people waiting for tickets but we waltz through the pass entrance, we wander around and I am disappointed to see that there are paintings and sculpture not on show as there is renovations going on. After 4 hours of wandering we get some lunch before heading to the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa, her room is filled with people 5 deep trying to get photos.
We wonder around till closing time ending up in the medieval louvre section, before getting Hustled out.
A quick walk to see Joan of Arc and we are back on the metro bound for our hotel.
Tomorrow is our last half day before catching the 3:15 train to London, a long day tomorrow with a late 10:45 pm flight home.
