louvring

Such a cliche and terrible pun, but very necessary.

and I'll spare you the time and NOT do a blog post on every museum we visited but...

Paris has SO many museums.

These are the ones that we hit up in the last four days:

-musee d'orsay
-les invalides
-musee rodin
-l'orangerie
-la conciergerie
-opera house
-pantheon
-louvre
-pompidou

so maybe not all of these are exactly museums, but close enough. and if that list doesn't look that impressive to you... try covering that many in four days. you could spend that many days in just the louvre. and probably should haha whoops.

anywayyys... as I was walking around all these different places with the super famous art I got thinking about how many stories were told and preserved through all of these various pieces. There's so much history and culture and lessons found in art! I'll be the first to admit that I wish I was a little more educated when it comes to the arts, and 8 hours in museums can definitely bring out my inner five year old, but it was kind of cool to think about how small I am compared to everything the world has seen.

That's about as deep as I'm getting on here. I think it's time for pictures before I do something I regret.
