my paris plan vs paris reality (museum edition)

Plan: Saturday Louvre morning, Orsay afternoon, Orangerie for the water lilies, then Picasso Museum if legs ok.

Reality, if I went on October 24: all closed. Louvre closed and refund. Orsay closed. Orangerie closed. Picasso closed too says the Turkish paper. Even Fondation Cartier closed two days.

Only Paris Internationale stay open. And Post-Fair open 10am to 1pm. So my whole day becomes: three hours small fair, then croissant.

Good thing I am retired electrician in Chennai and only planning on paper. But I feel for the people who flew there.
