One of many pavement cafe/bars
An unexpected church
A fountain in a pleasant little garden/park...
...where we rested tired feet for a moment
Breakfast, omlettes and Stella, was taken in another cafe
at the six-way intersection of the Boulevard Sebastopol
and the Rue de Turbigo.
Egyptian-themed fountain by the Seine
The river Seine
Seriously impressive civic archetecture!
Notre-Dame Cathedral
Rob, Steve & Pyromancer

Very talented classical buskers
Having marveled at the spectacular Gothic detailing of Notre-Dame, we crossed the other branch of the Seine to walk along the south bank for a short way, before crossing back via the islands to the north bank and down a traditional narrow street, lined with all kinds of interesting shops, punctuated by entryways to hidden courtyards. You could spend days in Paris just meandering down streets like this one, with good food and wine never more than a few doors away.
WHat a beautiful place to live!
The Gare de Where???
I got a wave from a woman on this boat!
One of Paris' many canals exiting to the river

Le Gare de Lyon
Finally we wandered our way to the spectacular clock-tower of the imposing Gare de Lyon, and our train onwards, to Melun and the Dark Omen festival.
