No problem. I saw a global survey recently where they asked what was the most disappointing tourist attraction visited and the Mona Lisa came out tops!

Mona Lisa.... disappointing.... only if some tourist is expecting it to be like 5 feet high or something.

I have to add that as a proud, native New Yorker, I humbly admit that Paris is truly the greatest city on earth. Listening to the pipe organ at close of mass at Notre Dame was breathtaking. I literally couldn’t move for minutes after it finished playing.

Thanks for the nice memories, Menzies

Why is the Champs Elise lined with trees?


Germans prefer to march in the shade.

Our guide told us that is wasn't much respected until it was stolen and hit all the papers, it was even seen as nondescript. She stated most professionals are still bemused by the popularity.
