Tea & croissant: Weapons of mass destruction

Way past the museums and bridge road, you'll eventually end up at a roundabout.

One of the exits will bring you here.

Welcome to Musée de l'Armée.

It's unfortunate that at the time of our visit, almost half of it was under renovation while most of the exhibition halls were closed. Or maybe because we were there on Labor Day.

Spotted it again. Why is it that we don't revere our twin towers or KL tower like that? Perhaps due to the lack of romanticism (or anything at all).

Spotted  a wild bunny at the lawn. I'm sorry but it crossed my mind on how it'll taste in a curry or on a skewer.

Noticeably smaller than the Louvre, the format is similar i.e. 4 buildings enclosed an open middle ground.

Courtyard that has seen better days.

My attempt at a perspective shot failed because despite the lack of visitors, they would trickle in and it's a long walk way from one end to another.

Oh, hi. Yes, finally making an appearance on this site.

Was I staring into space? Well, not quite. More like asking my photographer to hurry up before someone descends the stairs.

It would be nice to have a wedding shoot here. Actually, anywhere in Paris or London would be good because it isn't a hot or humid back home.

Somehow, the place doesn't look very well kept or suffered tremendously during the war.

View of the courtyard from the first floor. I like it that they try to disguise the renovation by draping a cloth printed with the image of what the building would look like. Nice way of blending in.

Me again. Would you be able to spot me in the crowds on the street?

I hope not >.<

Sorry, my posing skill is not very good. It was rather awkward being photographed by someone else.

The place was full of war relic. Even though we didn't get to visit the actual museum, this turned out to be quite fun.

Oh wait, what's that at the back ?

Dôme des Invalides. Situated on the ground of Les Invalides where there's  hospital for retired war veteran or those handicapped during the battle, it is also where Napoleon's tomb is.

This was one that I regretted not being able to visit though I probably wouldn't have anyway since have to pay.

There was an old man without his legs on a wheelchair, going around the ground and picking up rubbish (not that there were much) and sweeping sand off. A very unusual sight.
