On the first sunny, beautiful afternoon in Paris, I went to Notre-Dame. As Frommer suggested, I waited until sunset to go inside so that I could get the full effect of the gorgeous stained glass windows and the West Rose Window. The church was beautiful and some of my friends went to international mass there on Sunday. It was definately the perfect afternoon trip in Paris and if I find myself near Notre-Dame again, I will climb the towers and visit the gargoyles.
*To stall some time before sunset, I walked across a small bridge to Ile Saint-Louis. It is a small shopping district with restaurants, cafes, ice cream, and antiques. I want to go back and try a little corner restaurant with dozens of ceramic cows (vanches) in the window. Also, I found fro-yo at "myberry", for those who thought it impossible to find fro-yo in Paris, ha! I will be returning when it is open for some delicious frozen yogurt.
