Eiffel Tower from a distance. It is so large, it is hard
to get it up close and get the entire tower.
Above is the Eiffel Tower by night. Every
hour, the lights flash with a sparkle effect.
Notre Dame Cathedrial has beautiful architecture and stained glass windows. The
treasury houses many artifacts, including the Crown of Thorns of Christ.
This way to the Mona Lisa at the Louvre. They won't let you take a photo of the real
one, so this will have to do. It is much smaller (about 16 x 20) than you would think after seeing all the major murals
all over the walls and ceilings throughout this museum.
Above is the statue of Venus de Milo located at the Louvre.

Ronnie & Kathy in front of the Eiffel Tower.
Ronnie at the top of the Eiffel Tower on an overcast day in November.
Down below the tower, you can see the Seine River.
Just a few of the many stained glass windows of Nortre Dame Cathedrial.
The famous Arch de Triumph - Paris
Above and below is the famous Louvre Museum in Paris. You need a week to go through
this hugh museum and then you still wouldn't see everything.
The entrance to the Louvre is under the glass pyramid which looks out of place among all
the century old buildings of this famous museum.

Sainte Chappel Cathedrial in Paris is a little off the main street, but it is worth seeking
out. The stained glass windows are absolutely georgeous telling the story of the bible. On Good Friday, the Crown of
Thorns is on display in this Cathedrial.
We started out in London to compete in the London Classic, but after we made our reservations,
they cancelled the event due to some issues within the European dance circuit. So, we had no choice but to take the
3 days we would have danced in London and go to Paris, France.

Stained glass windows at Sainte Chappel. Photos cannot do justice to this beautiful church.
You must see in person to really appreciate the beauty.
The highlight in Paris (besides the Eiffel Tower) was we danced at the Moulin Rouge.
That was an awesome experience for us...there we were the only ones on the dance floor and everybody watching us and clapping.
That was really cool. And great for the ego...
