It seems like we were able to go right up to painting. We did have to wade through a huge crowd of people though.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11503676327555462834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-68727318231969795142012-01-07T18:20:02.153-05:002012-01-07T18:20:02.153-05:00Hmmm...you're actually the first person to war...Hmmm...you're actually the first person to warn me that it's a small painting. I never knew that. Shows how much of an art buff I am. Still, I imagine it's one of those "must see" things. Exciting that your kids got a chance to see it.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03280489567926890670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-47162020465258717552012-01-07T14:45:37.610-05:002012-01-07T14:45:37.610-05:00We are going to be at the Louvre in March and my 8...We are going to be at the Louvre in March and my 8 year old is very excited to see the Mona Lisa. I've warned her about how crowded it will be and how small the painting is. She says she understands but I'm pretty sure that she'll be a bit disappointed anyway!Lisahttp://www.gonewiththefamily.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-35976767697947891892012-01-07T02:44:02.964-05:002012-01-07T02:44:02.964-05:00Got to love kids how they see things, I don't ...Got to love kids how they see things, I don't rember her being behind glass but that was a long time ago now.greenthumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12067004547876814633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-66244780432453567152012-01-06T08:56:45.075-05:002012-01-06T08:56:45.075-05:00Oh what an opportunity, despite the crowds and dis...Oh what an opportunity, despite the crowds and distance!<br /><br />Happy New Year to you.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02824248962807980412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20750927.post-46181252237328412182012-01-06T07:00:41.267-05:002012-01-06T07:00:41.267-05:00Crazy, isn't it?

It was late October when I saw her and there were still long lines of tourist. You were pretty lucky not to have so many people around it.likeschocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733431135937009206noreply@blogger.com
