Art and Architecture from the Middle Ages

May 14, 2012
For the most part, we spent the day in the Middle Ages. With a trip to St Chapelle, the Latin Quarter, the Cluny Museum and Notre Dame, we were steeped in monumental architecture and spiritual art. We also got to learn about the Metro, how to read the Metro map and how to get back to the hotel. These were very important things to know!

Did you happen to notice how many variations we have on Chris'? It can get a bit confusing at times!!!

  1. Glad all has been going smoothly (relatively speaking). When you get to London, remember to keep some Tuppence (two pence). Weather here is great, but it looks rather nice there as well.

  2. John,
    Thanks for the note. I will definitely set one aside for you. Do you want a shiny new one or a well worn one?
