Jarle and I drove into Paris this morning after dropping off the kids at school. We visited the Musee Rodin which is situated in the house which Auguste Rodin lived in and has a big garden where several of his statues are displayed. Inside is a big collection of his work and also pieces by his fellow artists and students.
Out in the garden there is a cafe and so I think it would be nice to visit again when the weather is warmer. FYI entrance to the garden costs only 1euro which is a bargain because two of Rodin´s most well known pieces are there, the gates of hell and the thinker.
Afterwards we went for lunch in a restaurant on the top floor of the Musee Branly called Les Ombres. Ombres means shadows and it is named this because it is in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. Lovely view all around and a very chic restaurant with attentive staff. Quite pricey though.
