It was a perfect, low key thing to do with jet lag while we waited for our room to be ready. It was cold & wet outside, but we enjoyed lunch in the cafe in the garden.The Armchair Parisianhttp://thearmchairparisian.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011647259561000207.post-17336114212050199622010-03-07T19:31:13.390+01:002010-03-07T19:31:13.390+01:00So many choices, so little time!

As Nicole pointed out, the Picasso museum is closed for repairs until sometime in 2012.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09601542052605334407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011647259561000207.post-35570558181147050452010-03-07T19:25:42.189+01:002010-03-07T19:25:42.189+01:00My biggest recommendation to visitors looking for ...My biggest recommendation to visitors looking for something smaller is the Musee Picasso, which I think does a fantastic job of explaining to a regular person just why Picasso is so famous. I know that they are currently doing renovation work but I hope that they stick to the great chronological display that they used to have. Another lovely museum is the Musee de la Chasse. I love how intimate it feels- like you are just strolling through someone's house. It is an interesting museum for kids as well, mainly due to the animal 'cabinets'.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05668499644450303275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011647259561000207.post-77694796780235252342010-03-05T22:57:03.904+01:002010-03-05T22:57:03.904+01:00My favorite is the Musée Marmottan.

And the Building is gorgeous.Starmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386841450183061541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011647259561000207.post-14683170909373047892010-03-05T09:28:13.378+01:002010-03-05T09:28:13.378+01:00Oh I would like to go here!

I have lived here for 21 months, as of yesterday, and still have yet to visit the d'Orsay *blush* but I have made it to some smaller, interesting ones like Musée Cernuschi near Parc Monceau. There are a lot of choices past the big three at the top.<br /><br />I think I will follow your advice, though, and go when the weather is nicer and the foliage in fuller bloom. :)<br /><br />Thanks for highlighting this one!Karin B (Looking for Ballast)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03592528618484082434noreply@blogger.com
