Going into the Notre Dame cathedral, and going up into the bell towers, are two different things. It takes over an hour in line to get to the top, but you had to do it, right? A beautiful view of the gargoyles and the city
Lisa as Quasimodo
The famous original bell- now only rung on holidays
Took a quick look underneath Notre Dame, in the crypt, to see the original Roman ruines
The food in Paris? Amazing, of course! And beautiful. Anyone that knows us knows that Rick was blown away by the chocolates, and I couldn't get enough of the bread.
The Picasso Museum was wonderful. It showed his work through all periods- so you were able to see his work evolve, proved what a genius he was.
Hotel de Sully- a former chaeteu/palace- now a city park
The marker of the Bastille (since none of it still stands)
Stop at a street market to grab a picnic- bread, cheese, and fruit
Bird eating out of Lisa's hand- just too cool
The Rodin Museum
I'm thinkin'...I'm thinkin'...
Another famous Rodin- The Kiss
Part of the museum is a park with sculptures out in the gardens
Last stop, Montmartre- the heart of the bohemian movement, which is very evident. With street performers and artisits covering the streets. A very different part of Paris
For anybody who has seen Amelie- here's the blue arrows :D
The steps of Basilique du Sacré-Cœur
Fantastic view
The artists flock to paint you portrait
We were sitting at dinner there, and I honestly said- "hey, I wonder if there are really French mimes?"- and boom, here one came!
