Sunday morning we went to Notre Dame. It was amazing. We stayed for the Gegorian Chant a service with tons of singing. The priest uses lots of incense. I really don't see how they din't cough in the middle of it all! The building is gorgeous. The stained glass was my favourite part. I can just imagine Quasi Moto walking down this great cathedal.
After that we took a hop on/ hop off bus to the Champs-elyees. It's a humongous arch built in the 1820's to pay tribute to historic French figures. It's surrounded by a circle of traffic so you have to go underground to see it up close.
Next we went to the Eiffle Tower. There were a bunch of guys underneath and down the street by it selling miniature versions and other small products. It was quite funny to see them scatter when the police came because most of them didn't have the licence to sell that stuff. We took an elivator to the top of it. The view was breathtaking. One of the only bad things was that it was rely windy up there. A really amazing thing is that the Eiffle Tower gets painted every couple of years. The thing is they have to hand paint it! They better not be afraid of heights!
Then we went on another bus around the sites. We saw a bunch of things such as The Thinker, Grand and Petite Palaces and an Egyptian Obelik from 1500 BC. t is one of the oldest thing in Pars.
We got off the bus to have supper at a resturaunt. It was a really good meal. Then we went back to our apartment.
