In addition to visiting Josephine Bonaparte's estate at Malmaison, we took in several small Paris museums. The city was crowded and even though I would love to have gone back to the Louvre and the Musee D'Orsay, Paris has many wonderful small museums we concentrated on...Rodin, Cluny, Delacroix, to name a few. Above, from the top: the garden at the Rodin Museum with The Thinker, the Roman Baths excavated at the Medieval Museum (Cluny), the Lady and the Unicorn Tapestries at the Cluny, the studio from the garden of the Delacroix Museum. As we walked around Paris, we took in many famous sights. Above, Church of St. Germain des Pres, Notre Dame and the Seine, Place de la Republique, Grand Arche de la Defense, Hotel des Invalides. More dramatic sights, from the top: Church of la Madeleine, Arc de Triomphe, Palais Garnier (l'Opera). We soon embarked on our cruise up the Seine, pictures coming soon.
