History of art in Paris

This day was one of the best ones, and we are just in day 2. We started nicely, we got to eat breakfast, I ate scrambled eggs with bacon and fruit. Just with this, things are better than the day before. I got to change clothes since yesterday I bought new ones, so my outfit was a lot better too.
After we went out the hotel, the first thing we did was to go to Montmartre to see the area, buy things and to take pictures in the beautiful church Sacre Coeur.
We walked a little bit and then at 12:00 p.m. more or less we went back to the bus to go to the Louvre. I was really excited with this one because I have seen this enormous transparente pyramid and I knew that I had to take a picture of it. Before the tour in the museum, we ate. This time it was the turn for italian food: lasagna and tiramisu, they were delicious, they didn't dissapoint. Then, we went with our guide Claudia to the tour to the Louvre. We only got to see a part of it because in total they are 18 km and we don't have the feet to do that in one day. So we only saw the egyptians, the greeks, romans, french and italian paintings, etc. My favorites: the galerie of Apollo, galerie made by

Paris, France

This day was one of the best ones, and we are just in day 2. We started nicely, we got to eat breakfast, I ate scrambled eggs with bacon and fruit. Just with this, things are better than the day before. I got to change clothes since yesterday I bought new ones, so my outfit was a lot better too.
After we went out the hotel, the first thing we did was to go to Montmartre to see the area, buy things and to take pictures in the beautiful church Sacre Coeur.
We walked a little bit and then at 12:00 p.m. more or less we went back to the bus to go to the Louvre. I was really excited with this one because I have seen this enormous transparente pyramid and I knew that I had to take a picture of it. Before the tour in the museum, we ate. This time it was the turn for italian food: lasagna and tiramisu, they were delicious, they didn't dissapoint. Then, we went with our guide Claudia to the tour to the Louvre. We only got to see a part of it because in total they are 18 km and we don't have the feet to do that in one day. So we only saw the egyptians, the greeks, romans, french and italian paintings, etc. My favorites: the galerie of Apollo, galerie made by

Louis XIV based in the god Apollo, the famous Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci, and "La balsa de las medusas".
Then we had all afternoon for ourselves. We walked a little in Champs-Elysée and we went back to the Arc of triumph where was the point to see with the rest of our group, but the thing is that it was 4km away and we were very tired, so we decided to take the subway, for the first time, just me and my friend. We were terrified, but we did it. After it, we decided to go somewhere to go eat and we went to McDonalds, why not. In there a beautiful and vibrant couple arrived with us and gave us their already payed ticket to just wait for the food and eat it. A guard saw this and ask the couple, do you know each other? And the couple just responded: <<Pas de tout, c'est un cadeau>>. It was surreal, we had free dinner and we were part of a beautiful love story.
The night ended by watching the light show of the Eiffel tower and I learned this:
- it's ok to ask people what's going on if you don't know, loose the fear to talk another language.
- we don't talk in church.
- people in France smoke a lot.
That is it for today.
