Random holiday picspam 3: Paris (2002/2004) ~pt.2~

Ok, and part 2. :D

Musée du Louvre
I had been outside the Louvre many times (and even once or twice in the entrance hall under the pyramid), but in 2002 I finally made a proper visit. \o/ It's a great place and there is soooo much to see: paintings, sculptures, archaeological finds... *phew* Unfortunately I was only there for a couple of hours, so I probably didn't even get to see half of it. Definitely need to go again whenever I'm back in Paris!

Cimetière du Père-Lachaise 
I always had a thing for cemeteries, so during my Paris trip in 2004 I went to see Le Père-Lachaise. And I absolutely LOVED it there. <3 It is really huge and very quiet and peaceful. Many of the graves are actually quite beautiful. You can get a map with the most important/famous graves at the entrance, which is very helpful if you don't want to wander around endlessly or get lost. ;-)

Random holiday picspam 4: Versailles (2002/2004)

So, in addition to my two Paris picspams, here are my Versailles photos. Kinda belongs together, right? ;-) *gg*

I've been there twice and it's very beautiful. :-) The first time (2002) I only walked through the gardens, because we didn't have that much time and the queues to the palace looked rather long... The second time (2004) we only visited the palace. So combining the pics there is a bit of everything. :D
