Another reason to like Gena - I find it interesting, too!

One of our very best vacation photos was taken in the Louvre in 1989. It was off to the side of the Mona Lisa. The Mona Lisa is actually a small painting and was covered by heavy bullet proof glass (it's been stolen so many times curators aren't even sure it's the original). There are numerous signs in all languages around the painting as well as the universal "NO" symbol about taking flash pictures of the Mona Lisa.

Our vacation photo is a photo of all the Japanese tourists taking flash photos of the Mona Lisa!!
