Morning bells are ringing.
The view from our window
But what are all those little shops?
Our hotel was in the red light district of Paris.
Not shown: French whores.
Stop #1 - The Louvre
Good ol' Veenie D.
From right to left: Nick Velasquez of Clearwater, Florida; the very top of an ancient pyramid.
Not shown: The Mona Lisa. When I finally saw this I turned to Chad and quoted Daniela, saying " I feel nothing."
Stop #2 - The Eiffel Tower
The walk
My foot dragging me up the Eiffel Tower. This is about when the heatstroke took over. European heatwave.
We missed Daniela and Jesse.
Panini atop the tower.
The Eiffel Shadow
Stop #3 - Notre Dame
Ouuutttt theeereee....
Of course this doesn't do it justice.
Sanctuary.
Stop #4 - The Parisian Catacombs
This is where over seven million bodies were placed after cemetaries had to be dug up in the 1700's to prevent the outbreak of disease.
Those are real human skulls!
Such wonderful designs. Paris!
