Paris

We took the train from Lyon to Paris and arrived in just under 2 hours.  We took the metro, dropped our bags at Nannybags, and went directly to the Picasso Museum.  We enjoyed the Jackson Pollock exhibition that opened a week ago, and particularly enjoyed seeing the Picasso Collection - arranged chronologically and showing the various forms of art he made and the progression of his work, and the museum building - stunning!  


We took the metro to the Tuileries, and walked to our hotel.  After a siesta, we went for a walk through the Tuileries, through the Louvre grounds, and the Jardin du Palais Royale before returning to the hotel to get ready for dinner.  Even though it was a cloudy afternoon, families were out with their children after school.  A good day!
