Notre Dame, The Louvre, Exploring, Sacre Coeur

We begin at Notre Dame Cathedral at around 10 am.

Four boys contemplate greater things within the quiet of the cathedral. Shhhh!
(Anyway, Callum thinks this might all  be fake!)

.

After Notre Dame it's off to The Louvre for a morning and part of an afternoon to see over 400,000 artifacts. Most of us manage to see more than the 10 that we hoped to.

Winged Victory appears preparing to land on Cody's head! Jeremy  has to decide whether to help his friend, or do the Jeremy thing and just wander off on his own.

Thar she blows! If you look close you can seen Darcy right up at the front having a good look!

Down in the foundations of the medieval castle that became The Louvre.

Kyle and Ang take a few pictures of Hamurabi's Code.

A few pretty excited travellers!

Jonathan decides the pick the cheater's nose!

Exiting The Louvre through Ai Wei Wei's glass pyramid.

After supper we climb the many many many stairs up to the Sacre Coeur Cathedral, past the many many many hawkers and sellers. If you make eye contact with them, you're likely to find yourself giving them 10 Euros for a string bracelet, or a cheap Eiffel Tower knick knack. Some of us made eye contact, and found ourselves spending money we hadn't expected we would.

Here we queue up for our last subway ride. We may not be the most confident riders, but we're way better at than we first started. We know when to crowd on and when to crowd off. Some of us ride the subway like hockey players.
