July 2, I took breakfast in the beautiful restaurant. The decoration was of World Soccer Game style. |

City plan map of the Defense district. | |
Many shining buildings surrounded me. | |
Grande Arche de la Defense. It was quite huge. | |
The hotel entrance. | |
Spacious lobby. | |
City tour again | |
The first Sunday was a good day because all the museums in Paris were free to enter. We followed at the end of the long line. | |
I was very glad that I was actually here Le Musse du
Louvre. The Winged Victory of Samothrace. |
|
Aphrodite,known as Venus de Milo. | |
Beautiful furniture. | |
Winged Bull,palace of Sargon 2. | |
Seated Scribe | |
You can touch this famous stone monument. | |
Ancient Oriental reliefs fascinated me. | |
I could look through the world-famous museum today. I smiled back to La Gioconda in the end. | |
We headed back home in Bruxelles. I could barely catch the sign of France-Belgium border. | |
La Brutte du Lion stands high on the top of the artificial hiss in Waterloo battle field. | |
We arrived home in the sunset at ten. I was very happy today because I could visit my long cherished Paris together with my son and his wife. | |
