So, Rick and I are a couple of nerds- and so we couldn't go around Paris without doing a little DaVinci Code. First stop, St. Sulpice.
St Germaine- the oldest church in Paris. You could see alot more of the medieval symbology.
The two opposite rose windows- notice the inverted pyramids- Rick caught it
Little observations of Paris- sidewalk cafes with chalkboard menus
The metro and cool metro signs- we used it ALOT
Used book shop on the street
Open air market
Butcher
Fresh spices for sale
Little boulangeries and patisseries to buy yummy sandwiches and pastries
We went to Pierre Hermes- one of the top choclatiers in Paris- Rick was on cloud 9. Here are some Macarons- no equivalent in the States. Delicious.
Chateau de Vincennes- a real fortress on the edge of Paris. Here is the outer wall and mote.
The Chapel and main fortress
Complete with drawbridge
We went to the Parc Floral de Paris- just lots of families chilling in the park
Rick with his gourmet chocolates
We went out to see the City of Lights at night. The Louvre was beautiful all lite up.
And Rick found the Rose line
Obviously pretty stoked
Parisian street light and street signs
The Arc du Triomphe- what a wonderful trip.
