Les Deux Magot, Musee d'Orsay and the Jardin du Luxembourg (Day 7)
Another great day in Paris! I couldn't have come here without hanging out awhile out at Les Deux Magot (pronounced mag-o, "The Two Noblemen"). It's the most famous cafe in the world, made famous by some of the literary greats; Sartre, Beauvoir, Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald. I sipped on a Coca-Cola, contemplated life and watched the world go by. My afternoon was spent at the Musee d'Orsay with several incredibly talented gentlemen.......Monet, Renoir, Cezanne and Van Gogh. There's nothing like an art museum on a beautiful afternoon in Paris. I ended my day at the Luxembourg Gardens, an impressive garden oasis centered around the Luxembourg Palace. It's beautiful and peaceful, and abounds with Parisienne's kicking back and enjoying the scenery. The entire time I was there, I kept thinking, "I can't believe I'm in Paris, smack dab in the middle of the Luxembourg Gardens"!
