I'm going to Paris a week from today, for my first time there.

Any suggestions?

[ Going with Alice, visiting her sister who lives in Paris, and also visiting my friend Christine and seeing one of her gigs. ]

Huh. Apparently there are two sets and I misremembered which was which. The more famous Unicorn Tapestries are indeed at the Cloisters, and the set at the Cluny is The Lady and the Unicorn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lady_and_the_Unicorn. Still, worth going to see. I remember there being a lot of symbolic detail, with different types of animals representing... virtues? seasons? Clearly I need to review my art history!

Now I want to go to the Cloisters again.
