3:44 pm (Paris time)
After we left, we saw some chalk drawings
in the street. I saw one of Scrat (from the four Ice Age films). I have
a picture below. We also saw some modern sculptures – very cool.
The
Pompidou is a museum that has a bunch of escalators running on the side of the
building. The thing is, on each level where the escalators stop, there's a
whole hallway of art. We saw a portrait depicting William Tell and at least
twenty architectural models (Mrs. Widegren's class, if you want to know, ask
Emma what the process is for designing those. She should know [because of her
dad]
After
that, it started to rain (heavily) and we had to run back to get dressed for
the Louvre and our fancy dinner. By the way, did you know that the Mona Lisa is
very, very small? Put up your pointer finger. Then put up your other pointer
finger about fifteen inches apart from the first one. That's about how wide it
is.
have you seen the poem on the wall in the middle school about the mona lisa? it was written by julia dowd (tech school now, i believe) when she was in 6th grade.
