We headed once again to Notre Dame to get in line nice & early to climb to the top of the cathedral. There were not many people ahead of us, but the line grew quite a bit as we were waiting. We managed to be in the second group that got to go up, so we were pretty happy about that!
There are lots of gargoyles & animal drain spouts on the cathedral.
We had a nice view of the city, & it wasn't raining!
We even got to go into the bell tower
We had seen "The Great Canadian Pub" the day before, & we decided to stop for lunch there. I had poutine, it was ok, but not great. The restaurant was really dirty though. As Chad said, "it looks like they had a busy night last night & didn't have time to clean up afterwards."
This photo captures my thoughts on how good the experience was...
After lunch we headed to the Galeries Lafayette Haussmann, which was basically a very, very expensive department store.
We came, we saw, we couldn't afford anything!
More walking lead us to stumble upon the Centre Pompidou which is a modern art museum among other things. We came, we saw, we did not go in.
As we walked home we stopped at a shop & purchased some macaroons. They were also delicious!
Total distance walked: 8 km
