You might want to see elephants in the wild, or the Mona Lisa or just go surfing or whatever. I really don't understand this mindset.

Don't get me wrong: I like working. But the bottomline is that I'm working to live. I'm not living to work.

The Mona Lisa's not with it - it's very small, kept in the dark, and they won't let you near enough to it to get a good look. You really do get a better impression of it from reproductions.

Go to Glasgow instead and take a look at Dali's _Christ of Saint John of the Cross_ instead. It's huge and absolutely stunning.

Ha, yeah I spent a week in Paris, never bothered to go to the Louvre at all. Chartres is well worth a day trip though.

Totally agree about the Mona Lisa, but I just needed an iconic piece of art that everybody knows ;)
