Saturday (2 JUNE) in the Park next to St. Eustache.
| St. Eustache, one of the most beautiful churches in Paris, took 105 years to build! Moliére was buried here. Richelieu was baptized here. |
| Saturday, June 2, 2007 We went to a movie at Les Halles. You never know where each specific theater will make you exit. This was a nice surprise! |
| For centuries, Les Halles was an area of markets --fruits and vegetables, meat, etc. Zola called it "the underbelly of Paris." This was torn down and moved to a suburb near Orly. A modern shopping complex opened in its place in 1979. It contains shops, restaurants, and movie theaters, in several levels, many of them underground. |
We stopped at a cafe for a couple
of bottles of water. Can you see
the Eiffel Tower in the background?
