Musee Quai Branly

Into the third week and went to the brand new Musee Quai Branly which features indigenous art and artifacts from around the globe. It is full of visual appeal and theatrics with very little explanation and context in its exhibitions. I hated it.

On the way I stumbled across the Diana memorial over the Alma underpass. There are still fresh flowers and notes saying she was the 'perfect princess' etc etc.

Paris is full of kilted Scots here for the France v Scotland football (soccer) match tonight. There are literally 1000s wandering the streets and they have been here for days drinking and partying. Looking forward to watching it at my local tonight.
