You have to like a subway system with stations named for my nephew and one for Suzanne Lenglen! popped out to take this picture as I zipped by. |

Thoroughly enjoying your holiday, Constance. Thanks for all the photos and chat about your experiences. Having to stay up for a lesson was tough.
You and your mother seem to have endless energy. And attending a class in the middle of the night!
I'm loving the armchair travel! The Smithsonian has a cast of the Burghers of Calais at the Hirschhorn, in case you still want a postcard of it.
Thanks for the great photos. I'm always complaining that the shops in museums and galleries are missing a trick. They never have what I would like to buy.
I took those same pictures at Musee D'Orsay :)
And I love the Rodin Musee, like you, especially the sculpture garden. The whole time I was reading All the Devil's Are Here, I was thrilled to know exactly what Penny was describing. Kudos to you for reading it in Paris.
It's so frustrating when museums don't have the postcards you want, or have postcards of artworks that aren't on display! There is a small Rodin museum in Philadelphia, it's worth seeing if you like sculpture, and it's free! And just a short walk from both the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Barnes Foundation.
That sounds like a great idea, Karen, thank you. I have always meant to go to the Barnes but I think it was being renovated on one visit and most recently I have been rushing down and back for basketball games. I hope to be back in Philadelphia in early 2022. Also, a friend in DC has been telling me I need to go to the famous book barn! https://www.bookbarn.com/
