    Pari Finale

    July 5, 2018 in France ⋅ 🌧 23 °C

    Last day in Paris. It appears to be the day to stumble on churches. Monmatre is on the site where it is said, a priest had his head cut off, walked up the hill (mon) and washed his head. So massively impressive inside. The building has to be worship alone. Found a Catholic Church with iron buttresses. Again, so impressive for the size and detail. And another with the dome featured. Not to waste our last afternoon, we walked possibly 15-20km around the Lovre, the banks of the Seine watching barges and artists. We sat on love lock bridge where love is declared by putting a lock with you initials on the handrail. Walked past dozens if police holding automatic rifles ....can’t say i wasn’t shocked each time. Even explored a grocery shop and picked food past our comfort zone; except for the bananas and cider. It was almost 10pm before we got back to the hotel and it was still light. Was hoping to see Paris under lights at the river. Specific yes but coming away not at all disappointed. Thankyou Paris. You did not fail my extremely high expectations.Read more
