Bonjour et bienvenue à mon blog! I started this blog as a way of sharing my experiences in Paris when I interned there during the Summer of 2006. Since then it has become a forum for all things awesome in the lives of my little family and I. Enjoy!

How to Do The Louvre
One of Sara's life long dreams has been to be able to just spend days at Parisian museums. Here is her big chance. While I am at work Sara usually spends the day at The Louvre, and I meet her there afterwards. Here she is after spending her first full day there. It is not easy to avoid turning into a zombie while in the Louvre for longer than a few hours. Its a historical building full of priceless things to look at, but sometimes a person just gets tired of standing in front of works of art and taking it all in. I suggest that a person spends no longer than four or five hours in the Louvre in one day. Sara has taught me that the best way to look through such a huge museum is to pretty much run through with your eyes set on scan and then stop to look at the ones that catch your eye, regardless of who painted what. This is certainly a good idea. After I picked up Sara from the Louvre we went on a bit of a walk around the area and came across some pretty neat stuff. Its kinda cool to tell your wife as you walk out the door to go to work that you'll meet her at the Louvre pyramid at six thirty.
