not to be confused with Rodan, although I'd totally go to his museum too, if he had one :P

3. Oh, I'm not back yet...8 more days
Personally, it'll be great to get home...Paris kinda stinks when you're alone... :(

But otherwise I am having a good time, and having a good internet cafe close by has helped tremendously. :D

Tommorrow, the Picasso Museum :)

4. Wow thank you so much
Rodin is my favorite! I have several replica pieces and many books on him. The pictures are terrific. Many pieces I had not seen before. Just great thanks again.

9. You have a really good eye!
These are tremendous photos... really top notch. Of course, that little Canon helps make it all come out right, too. Looking forward to the next installment!

Thanks for sharing!

11. My evil ex is a professional photographer
That's the one good thing I got out of that relationship, hehe. :P Well, he was, before he ended up in prison. Looooong story there :)

12. I love Rodin's work
I last time I saw some of this stuff was a few years ago at the Rodin exhibit here in Raleigh. The Rodin Museum lent them the pieces.

I would love to see the Rodin Musuem some day. Thanks for the pics, bicentennial baby. :-)

16. That's good. She deserves it.
I have a friend that named her daughter Camille after her.

17. I have really enjoyed the virtual trip to Paris! Don't let yourself
run out of time without going to Versailles,

and I hope you have had a chance to bum around in Montmartre and do the "Amelie" tour thing.
