We have spent a lot of time on our feet today and they are tired - but we are not finished with them yet!
We began the day walking to Notre Dame Cathedral for mass at 10.00am. We happened to score the Gregorian mass so there was great music although we couldn't sing along in French! Lucky we didn't opt for the 11.30am mass - they were celebrating something to do with a bicentenary and Frederick Ozanam (the info was in French and I can't be bothered googling it!). We counted 33 priests, 4 bishops and we think a Cardinal processing in!
Following a coffee and croissant under the shadows of the Notre Dame tower, we headed for the Musee d'Orsay.
Not only do we have a Palace in Lyon, we have a boat on the Seine! You might have to look closely!!
We had a lovely Sunday afternoon perusing the art works that we have seen so many reproductions of! Even saw the polar bear Joel!
Musee d'Orsay
After a wander back to the Hotel through the Tuillerie Gardens we are now getting ready for a Seine dinner cruise. Better go and spruce up!!!
