Visiting Christophe in Paris for a couple days

Christophe's tiny apartment

But I love the decor

Oh yes!

Upon arrival by Eurostar train, Chris took me off to a riverboat cruise on the Seine with Sebastian and Faustine.

Oh yes, I am really in Paris

It twinkles!

We started out early the next day at Notre Dame. Wow! Color me impressed.

And on the inside

I could not get over the height of the ceiling!

Typical headless Frenchie of the time.

But the best part was up above the city in the gargoyle roosts enjoying spectacular views!

I assume this guy is just devouring a chicken...?

Ok, I am sufficiently impressed. I can go home now. But wait, there's more!

Me and uncle Charlemagne

While waiting in line to get into Saint Chapelle

Relaxing at a couple sidewalk cafes.

Stopping at sites along the metro trip back

It twinkles!

Whew! And that was Day 1.
