The Rest of Paris

I liked the local architecture

Memorial by the Jewish community for the Holocaust

The Wall of the Righteous Among the Nations,

for all who helped the Jews in Paris during the Holocaust

stopping in for some delightful sorbet when rain caught us without umbrellas

Notre Dame garden

Notre Dame

a historical and well-known bookshop

another bookshop, less well-known

and there it is!

my apologies for the number of pictures on a single subject,

I wanted to see how many good pictures of it I could get.

about to walk under

I like pictures of people taking pictures. Notice the camera in the bottom-right corner?

This was as dusk was falling (about 10:00 at night) and they were starting to turn on the lights.

my group went on a river cruise, which started and ended at the tower.

This is when we got back, maybe around 11:30?

Midnight at the Arche de Triomphe :)

me and a professor friend

 

NEVER try to cross the street at the Arche!

There's usually an underground passage if you want to go to the Arche de Triomphe,

but it closes at midnight.

Sunday morning at Notre Dame. We went to a Gregorian Mass.

inside Notre Dame

there were two sides that portrayed significant events in Jesus' life:

the first portrayed the events of the Nativity,

the second portrayed the Passion (before, during and after)

this is from the second side, featuring such events as doubting Thomas seeing Christ

the center area of Notre Dame, for services

saying goodbye to our Paris hotel

the countryside, on the way to the ferry at Calais
