Versailles is beautiful! Will they turn the fountains on while you're there? The fountains are stunning. (Although maybe less so when it's cool/cold and rainy.)
I actually like the juxtaposition of the pyramid and the building. Call me philistine. I much prefer the outside of the Louvre to the inside (except the old 12th-century foundations; those were totally worth the price of admission), but I also loved the Winged Nike. It's beautifully displayed.
