Paris - Day 2: Sainte Chapelle, Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower

Starting our day off right at a patisserie with cappuccinos and croissants!
My fountain, "Fontaine Saint Michel" :)
gotta love European knockoffs :/

"Point Zero" in front of Notre Dame:
Inside Cathedrale de Notre Dame:
Mary and Jesus in one of the rose windows:
The chandelier was being cleaned:

I liked the guy holding his own head :P

Our second stop of the day was at Sainte Chapelle - and it was by far more beautiful than Notre Dame inside!!

The first floor:

heading towards the Arc de Triomphe:

A huge Louis Vuitton store!
Walking down the Champs Elysees:
Looking at the top of the Arc de Triomphe:

We actually climbed the Eiffel Tower on this day ... hoofed it up so we didn't have to wait in line :)

Before we went to the Moulin Rouge that night we went and had some drinks at a local pub:
