another fabulous day weather wise!! We got a late start, as we were trying to go to Giverny or Versailles, but that didn't work out, so we went to Notre Dame. Wow - that is all I can say. What a fabulous place that is. We had seen it from the Seine River cruise, but it was great. We were lucky because we were there on a Sunday and they were having services. Then we went to Sainte Chappelle. Long lines, so we went and had a lovely lunch at a Sidewalk cafe, and enjoyed that. We went back to Sainte Chappelle after lunch and took a tour. Another amazing place. The stained glass windows are indescribable. My feet & knees gave out about then, and I couldn't wait until we got back to the hotel. The Metro is into torture, and you have to climb up and downstairs to reach the proper station. But FINALLY we got back to our hotel and had a chance to recuperate! Went to a lovely place for dinner - Chez Clement, and I had a wonderful dinner. Started with Escargots!! one of my favorites. Then I ordered Fruit Du Mare (tiniest shrimp I've ever seen!), and ended my wonderful meal with Creme Brulee!! I also had a glass of wine. Walked back to the hotel, and had more wine. Tomorrow is our last day in Paris, and then we take the overnight train to Venice. Beth & Andrew & kids leave us, and it's only the 3 of us. Should be interesting!
