before we left paris we went to the Musée d'Orsay. it was a train station before being converted to a museum.
its famous for having a large collection of impressionist pieces from artists like Monet, Degas and Renoir. (don't be misled into believing i'm a cultured and know anything about art!)
i saw some mary cassatt's and thought of you mom.
they had a whole room of van goh's.
i love this painting of a gypsy. she's just so sassy!
i also love love love all of degas' ballerinas!
monet liked sailboats too.
we stopped to get a caffeine boost has the restaurant in the museum. it had gorgeous windows that the sunlight was streaming through.
i promise i will make an update about what i've been up to in bordeaux later today, but i just wanted to make a quick post before anyone had major blog withdrawal symptoms.
