April in Paris is incredible! The weather is lovely, people are friendly, and this city is hopping with energy.
Today we visited Sainte-Chappell – a 13th century chapel with oodles of stained glass windows that sparkle on a sunny day. We had the sunny day but the chapel is also under restoration so some of the windows were under cover. What we could see were beautiful.
Then onward to the 700 year old Notre Dame where we stood in a long line to climb the some-odd 300 steps up to the façade between the two towers, for not only some breath-taking views of the city, but also some close up views of the critters on top of the cathedral.
Let me give you some visuals….
Is he sticking his tongue out at the city of Paris?????
These guys are laughing at all those people in those looonnnnggggg lines to in get into this church.
And look at this guy! I guess if I’d been stuck up on the roof for 700 years, I would be so looney I’d swinging a knife around also! But enough of the scary stuff…….

Stay tuned…… more of Paris to come…….
