We have seen Paris in all its glory, with the sun shining on the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame. That was not to be on this trip. We had rain and low skies.
When we went out for dinner, the charming cafe had these pictures on the wall.
The next day our bus dropped us off as close to Notre Dame as was possible. A large area around the cathedral is behind a fence, mainly because of lead contamination. We did see the oldest tree in Paris, planted in 1602, a nice little park and some interesting buildings.

This is the best view we had of Notre Dame. We could just make out the Eiffel Tower through the rain, so I did not think that would make a very good picture. Fortunately, we were in Paris before, so here is what they looked like in 2011.
