Paris

So we spent last weekend in Paris! We did pretty much everything. We went to Notre Dame and St. Chappelle. We climbed the tower at Notre Dame and hung out with the gargoyles. The bells play to the tune of Ave Maria. We went to the Chapel of the Miraculous Medal and saw an incorrupt saint! We went to the happiest place on earth, otherwise known as the LOUVRE (best part is that we got in for free!). We spent Saturday at the Hotel des Invalides and saw Napoleon's Tomb. We also climbed the Eiffel Tower at night! It was freezing but incredibly beautiful as well! On Sunday we went to Mass at Sacre Coeur and spent the day in Montmatre until it was time to leave. My camera ran out of batteries half way through so these are all the pictures I have until I can steal the others from my friend's camera. This next 10 days is my vacation and we're headed to Barcelona, Madrid, Dublin, Galway, and London!!

Rose Window in Notre Dame (we were there while it was really gloomy outside so the Gothic architecture in the church was amazing! it was lit only by candle and natural light so it was a bit eerie)
