Musée du Louvre We were lucky enough to get into le Louvre this morning before the lines got too bad. We jumped onto a “Rick Steves” (he’s from the PNW you know) audio guided tour on Apple Podcasts and it was great.
We are wandering the Louvre today looking big at the Italian, French, Greek, and Roman wings. I found a great painting by Andrea Montegna called Minerva chases the vices out of the garden of Virtue.
