Beautiful! I didn't realize there was a rooftop terrace. Guess I'll have to go back.

Thank you for sharing all the lovely photos, of both the museum and all the macarons. Talk about eye candy!

One of my favorite museums! I loved the impressionist gallery! Al and I were there in September.
I can't wait to see more!
