400 Steps Up! 400 Steps Down!

To get to the top of the towers of Notre Dame, and one of the most spectacular views of Paris, you have to climb up 400 steps inside a circular staircase.  No elevator, no escalator!  Quasimodo may have had a hunchback, but I think he was in great shape!  It was a tiring climb, but the pictures made it worth the effort!














The Pompidou Centre – Musée National d’Art Moderne

The Pompidou Center, France’s Museum of Modern Art, is one of theose places that most people either love or hate.  The building itself caused quite a stir itself when it was built.  We saw some interesting things, some different things, and some bizarre things.  I guess there is something for everyone at the Pompidou!
