Notre Dame



Today i didn't do a lot of the field work because there were a lot of tourists out because it was a sunny day. A lot of us were going to go the the Museum d'ordsay but the lines we outrageous. So the 2nd plan was to go to the catacombs but we didn't have the allowed time and rather than spend money to get on the metro and miss the entry anyways i just stayed with the group who pretty much had no idea what to do after we failed. So we sat on the steps of a very large building that was beautiful and must have had importance but i couldn't read the sign.

But i went home a little later and then walked to the Notre Dame to meet Oksana, Jasleen, Josh and their parents. They had been in Rome for the past week and then are in Paris for this week and going back to Rome for the 3rd week. We took a couple of jumping pictures in front of notre dame because we were excited!! It is one of the oldest buildings in Paris and we walked around the back to see the gargoyles and the park around it.

Afterwords i gave them a tour of the Latin Quarter, the Luxembourg gardens, the Sorbonne, and the Pantheon. They loved this side of Paris, as i do and i got to be the tour guide and not the tourist :)
