MapEvery fountain in Paris has some kids sailing the little wooden boats around in it. Every fountain in America is full of change. I feel like that might mean something, though it might not be as bad as you think.

MapArmless woman over exposed. Am I the only one that sees Venus de Milo and for some reason thinks of Boxing Helena, that terrible movie with Julian Sands? I wish I could kill that association.

MapIt's hard to take clear images in the Louvre with guards hovering around all the time. And it's not like I'm using a flash, no paintings were harmed in the taking of these images.

MapVictory... Unfortunately I jiggled the camera. Still seems that people like it. I guess it looks okay if you stick to the smaller sizes. If you're the type that likes to make your eyeballs bleed reading on the internet, you might enjoy the writing that goes with the images in this set, it's called, The Houses We Live In. Because let's face it I suck at titles.

MapThe thing with juxtaposing the modern and the, uh, not modern, is that it somehow seems to cheapen both of them, which is why the pyramid just doesn't work for me. For more thoughts check out The Houses We Live In.

MapThe Louvre. I was commenting that the glass pyramid looks pretty stupid when laura pointed out it was designed by an American. I might even discuss that in the little post about the Louvre on luxagraf.
