the mona lisa


the mona lisa was actually bigger than i was expecting. the way people talk about it being a disappointment makes it seem like it's the size of a postage stamp. the crowd wasn’t too big so i was able to get right to the front. the glass covering the painting makes photographing it hard, but it’s fine. i stood in front of it for a while trying to take it in and convince my self that i am actually seeing THE MONA LISA and i am IN PARIS. i feel so incredibly lucky.

there she is...

getting closer...

almost there...

voila! see? bigger than they tell you, right?
