Unexpectedly the pic now posts OK – the Winged Victory of Samothrace in the Louvre – we found oursleves hopelessly lost in there but think we will go back for another sortie in the few days we have there beginning saturday. Poeople constrantly throng around this anciemt work, and we found it quite impossible to get within spitting distance of the Mona Lisa – in one way it’s probably better to find a good pic in a book, than push forward to the front of the crowd. And even if you get to the front of the crowd it’s roped off over 1m back, and you still aren’t close.
But Alison – you are not supposed to spit at it!
Love the Egypt blogs too – I am just catching up after France.
