Day 3

On day 3, we wandered around the city and visited Notre Dame. I (Sara) also had my first chocolat chaud ancienne, where you pour the chocolate and steamed milk in yourself. Yum! Most of our pictures are of the architecture of buildings, but we did sneak in a few of us (per request) ! :) Most of these pictures were taken by Andy with commentary.







This is a picture of a metro stop. There were lots of things named after Roosevelt, Eisenhower, and other big WWII names in Paris


A picture of candy mushrooms at a confectioner's shop






Here is some proof of how expensive Levi jeans are in France! Overalls cost 119 euros!





The outfit the prices were referring to; with a nice reflection of the city





The clouds were cool that day







I liked that fact that this building's angle made me think about perspectives







This is a park that I just loved. It started with an old church that had some great angles and shape to it





A side picture of some drains; a lot like Montpellier's old church







There was a statue of a head in the courtyard








Kids playing on the statue. I'm sure they pick its' nose. Not that I would...





A picture of the sundial tower on the old church







Next to the church was a sci-fi looking circular building






Unfortunately, in the courtyard were some creepy crows






On the other side of the park was another sci-fi looking structure





Part 1 of a giant tower






right across from The Black Cat






and a cool sphinx-based fountain






Here you can see the Eiffel tower off in the distance





Part 2. How did they make this stuff back in the day?





Gilded, gilded everywhere





There are tons of cool churches around Paris





Another "N" for the little general that could





Part 3. How long did it take?





Very charming fella for an overpass





The four ladies of justice near Notre Dame





Coming up on Notre Dame





Part 4. Must have been at least ten years?





Slowly, but surely; here we come





Yah! We made it





Our victory kiss









Part 5. Now the tops of the tree next to me show







We sat in front of Notre Dame for a while. We even got harassed by the same lady for money twice!





For whatever reason, I always wonder if Jesus would appreciate a giant church being built like this





A cool hand dryer in a restaurant where we stopped





The overview shot of the giant tower. It was quite majestic to stumble on





Sara's delicious hot chocolate
