Day 34- Notre Dame



Well today we decided to go to mass at Notre Dame. Nick and I woke up dressed up and headed over to the 1130 mass. We got to skip the line to visit because we were actually attending the mass. The mass was really nice, hard to follow sometimes because it was 95% in French. There was also a chorus at the mass we chose which was also very pretty. At communion it was interesting to see how many people did not get up to take it because they were just coming to mass to see what it was like and not Catholic. After mass Nick and I wandered for a bit and found me a beautiful painting of the Eiffel Tower at night and then eventually made our way back to the hotel on foot. It was about a mile walk but we stopped in shops on the way. Most were closed though because it was Sunday. Once we got back to the hotel we found Jenny and decided to eat at Hard Rock. But once we got there they told us the wait was almost 2 hours... we said no way and ended up eating at a Fondue restaurant which was amazing. We had cheese fondue with bread and potatoes and then chocolate fondue for dessert with fresh fruit. After a filling dinner we walked back to our room, packed up and then just hung out until bed.
