Well we sure needed the 11 hrs of sleep we got last night. We were pretty exhausted from our travels and the lack of sleep the night before. Today we got up and went to a little cafe for breakfast and then headed out to see Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louve Museum.
The Cathedral was spectacular! We were fortunate to arrive just before 12:00 pm and stay for noon Mass. The Mass was beautiful, spoken in French, but we were able to participate and know what the message was. Our Catholic upbringings definitely helped us.
The Louve is gigantic! It is so huge there is no way anyone could see it in one day. Unfortunately for us, it was closed today-bummer.
We stopped for lunch at a pizzeria. It was so cute…we sought shelter from the rain under an awning and across the alley was the pizzeria. Standing in the doorway was the maître d. He started serenading us with a French song and yes, these 50 year old women could not resist. So we had lunch there-ha!!
