In hindsight, I made the mistake of lining up a couple of museums when in fact we should have just spent the entire day out to enjoy the summer in Paris, which we otherwise never get to do. We started with Musée des Arts et Métiers (on its own page): And then we went to Centre Pompidou (on its own page): Not often that we're in Paris during the summer, so we went around 1st Arrondissement: We then went to Centre Pompidou, which included fairly good views: Then it was time to go home.
