Bon Jour from Paris!

We made it, and finally were able to get access to the wifi in our apartment, by not using the security password.

Our big adventure yesterday was checking out the metro routes to take today in order to reach Notre Dame, the meeting spot for our bike tour of Paris.

Both today and yesterday a fete du pain (festival of bread) was taking place in a giant tent in front of Notre Dame.  It smelled great, and there were lots of choices.  We each had a mini-croissant.

Today's post features views of Notre Dame.

My favorite stained glass window, featuring a bird feeding its young

An unexpected memorial in English

The statue of Charlemagne, where the bike tour met
