Pretty things

Here are two pictures from Tuesday, September 16.

This chandelier is in the big art museum called the Louvre. It used to be a palace for the French kings! Can you see all the sparkly pieces of glass? Can you see some of the paintings on the ceiling? Kings and queens used to decorate their homes with fancy things everywhere they looked.



Even though Paris is a big city, there are still some parts where people keep gardens. This garden is next to a fancy store called Le Bon Marche. The name of the garden is L'Hospital Ennec Jardin Catherine Lafoure. That's a big name. It was named for a lady who used to live in Paris. The French word for garden is "jardin" -- can you find it in the name under the picture?
