Your time viewing European art would be better served by seeing Velazquez's works in the Prado instead of queuing up with the tourists to see the most overrated work of art in history. Nevertheless, the Louvre was the highlight of my trip to the overrated city of Paris.

Isn't that the truth? We took a night train from Frankfurt, woke up in the Nord train station, and had to fight back the urge to rupe due to the stench of urine as we made our way to the Louvre.

We we were northward bound to the coast before the sun set. What a $#!+hole that city is.

My mother was disappointed when she finally got to see Paris. She said it reminded her of NYC *LOL*

I don't even think Le Louvre is worth going to now that they have the Museum de Orsee. My favorite museum of all time...It's in a renovated train station. They took all the impressionist master's work from Le Louvre and put it in that museum...Monet, Degas, Renoir, Van Gough, Gaugin, etc. It's a museum not to miss!
