THIRTEEN

The following day’s highlight, Notre Dame cathedral is a perfect note to end our weekend on. We make our way to the Île de la Cité, one of the two natural islands in the Seine, on the metro. We emerge from the underground station and walk a little distance and go inside the cathedral. It smells musty and old and it’s full of fabulous gloomy atmosphere.

We walk down the impressive nave flanked with its huge stone pillars and stand in awe looking at the altar. The blue blaze of lighting and the statues surrounding it are out of this world. Finally we go up and explore the towers. Then we wander around outside. I especially love the ugly gargoyles and chimeras sitting up on the façade grinning their evil little grins at all the passers by. I take lots of zoom photos of those to examine later.

After that we have lunch and head off back to the hotel to grab our bags and finally set off for home.

I fall asleep with my head on Mark’s shoulder on the train in the late Sunday afternoon sunshine. Last night had been a very, very late and energetic night.
