On our last day in Paris, we checked out of the hotel, stored our luggage and went on a double decker bus ride of the city. We sat on the top and even though it was chilly, it was a perfect way to get a tour of the city.
This is the area where Princess Diana spent her last night. Just past this area is the road where her life ended.
We got off of the bus at Notre Dame. What a beautiful cathedral it is!
During the French Revolution they mistakenly thought the statues were french kings instead of biblical kings, so they decapitated them.
This one apparently didn't get fixed.
I had to get my door picture!
(Sorry for the crooked-ness...I need to do some adjustments to it.)
The flying buttresses on the backside of the cathedral.
If you have seen Pillars of the Earth (if not, I HIGHLY recommend it!) then you can truly appreciate the beauty of these.
Grace and I on the train ride back home. It was an amazing trip to Paris and I am sure the first of many. I fell in love with that city.
