The Adventures of Kerri & Matt

We went to the Eiffel Tower at night.

Without a tripod.

Weeeeeeeeeeee!

Woooooooo!

Selfie Time!

It was raining.

Then it stopped and there were big puddles.

Then we got close.

 

 

And closer.

Then right underneath.

Then it was the top of the hour and lights started flashing and everything went crazy.

Or maybe just Kerri went crazy.

Because she didn’t have a tripod.

And there were lots of lights.

We went to the second floor and Matt attempted to imitate Haley. But he didn’t have any glasses to catch so Kerri got a picture this time. He also didn’t get stuck.

The view was nice.

And the tower was pretty.

We saw lots of other stuff at the Louvre. But we only took pictures of stuff that amused us.

Our French is very, very bad and Google Translate says that this is a pot which symbolically contains either a child or boiled water from the Nile river.

This looks like a maze but is apparently some kind of basin to recreate the Nile flood.

Here is Jesus doing sit ups.

This stone statue is broken and he’s still trying to figure out what happened.

This Assyrian warrior is cuddling an unimpressed lion.

And this is a painting of Darth Vader having a lightsaber fight across from a classical Greek statue.

The art outside the Louvre is newer, and therefore weirder.

This is Untitled 13 (Watchers). I don’t think you should be able to give a second title to an untitled sculpture. But clearly I don’t make the rules of modern art. It is made of bronze, it’s just painted to look like toilet paper.

This spins slowly.

People stand inside it, look confused and take selfies.

The chandelier in this beach ball also spins. It scares away the seagulls.

This guy is not impressed by the art. Or maybe he just doesn’t like the birds.

ARRRGGGG those pooping birds!

There was lots of Egyptian stuff in the Louvre.

Egyptians had big feet.

I’m glad we don’t write in hieroglyphs.

Kerri’s writing is hard enough to read. Kerri’s drawings would be hopeless.

I’m pretty sure the message here is “never turn your back on a snake in a boat”.

Mummies are mummified.

The Egyptians drew a lot of hybrid animals. Bear/lion/crocodiles are awesome because they can pout properly because the have lion paws.

This is a mummified baby crocodile.

And these are cats.

This is presumably a tubby pharaoh.

The 8 legged wasp eats grass under the towering mushroom next to the woman in the giant dress.

An evil beetle is thirsty because the cup of water in the bomb is empty.

I don’t know what they needed the Rosetta stone for, these are easy to translate!

This depicts a banquet and above is the menu. Did they chop off all four of the duck’s heads before eating it?
