Notre Dame Cathedral is absolutely beautiful with all the stained glass windows. For some reason I thought that the cathedral was much smaller, so it was quite amazing how bit ig was inside. It was amazing to everybody when they walked into the Cathedral and it was totally silent.
A few facts about the cathedral:
Construction on the cathedral started in 1163 but it took until 1345 for the cathedral to be completed. During the French Revolution the gallery of kings in the front of the cathedral was severally damaged because the revolutionaries thought they represented French Kings. The massive rose window has a diameter of 13.1 meters.
Also, I would like to say bonjour to my Grandma!!!

The memories still haunt you, when you think back to that spring, all the fun, all the sorrow and all the wacky things about it. This is just an old adventurer reminiscing here. People are always moving forward, never looking back at what got them here many times, but that trip showed an entire group of students things about history, their backgrounds and themselves they will never forget. Thanks again to all the teachers who beared with us, kept a smile on their faces and carpe diem was their motto for the trip. Also to all the guys and gals who stuck it out, had some fun and took away memories that will last a lifetime.
