November 10th

Today is the last day in Paris - headed home in a few hours, catching the train to the airport much sooner. But this morning there was still time for one last museum. Joy and I went to the Maritime Museum this morning. It was an extensive museum with mostly model ships and paintings. Strangely, some of the paintings and sculptures seemed to have very little to do with the ocean. Many of the model ships were very old and based on real ships. Apparently, the French royalty had scale models of all their ships built while the real ones were being constructed. Overall, a neat museum, but nothing spectacular. And now - to see the space that the theater school has to work in, which is apparently quite beautiful.
