From januari 25th till 28th, we went to Paris. Just the two of us to spent a couple of days together. Both of us have been here before, so you won't see some of the stuff you would expect, like the Louvre. Some of the other things are definately here, you'll see!
We stayed at a small hotel in the center of Paris called Hotel d'Albe. As Paris is divided in parts, the part where we stayed is called
Le Quartier Latin.
It's the perfect place for people looking for good restaurants, nice bars and everything you want to see at walking distance. The picture you see is the view from our room. If you try real hard you can see the Seine. Not the best of views, but the location of Hotel d'Albe is perfect enough to compensate this!

Only a two-minute walk from our hotel: one of the most famous churches in the world:
the Notre Dame.
When we visited it at sunday morning we found ourselfs in the midst of a Mass. It's the strangest thing, all these tourists walking around and at the same time there's a mass with Gregorean hymnes and incense. I'm not the religious type, but this was very impressive!
Walking around in the neighbourhood of our hotel, we suddenly noticed some strange sculptures in the shops. Still wondering why this all looked like the stuff in the fountain near Centre Pompidou, we rounded a corner and there is was:
Centre Pompidou.
