A Trip to the Louvre

We've stayed inside with books for most of the weekend.  Janet is having a little back trouble and I was hit with a very unpleasant but mercifully short-lived bout of food poisoning Thursday night.  With that, and as we're hardly unpacked from Istanbul, a quiet weekend was called for.


We did venture out for a few hours this afternoon, since Christmas approaches and un-manic opportunities for shopping are becoming few.  There are no handy malls, per se, but a very useful collection of shops is found in the Louvre's underground arcade, not least of which is the Louvre's gift shop itself.  Given its brevity, it was a successful shopping trip (but don't get your hopes up folks - all the best stuff is still inside the museum).
