Today we decided to go to St. Sulpice and t St. Germain-des Pres
Churches. We walked down our street and found a lively Sunday
morning market. Fresh bread, meat, friuts, veggies, fish, cheese, wine
sour candy. I bought some candy that looked like red rasberries. I
popped one in my mouth and puckered like I never have before. After
the initial shock the candy is really good. We caught the Metro and
headed to the Rive Gauche (Left Bank)
Looking straight out our apartment window.
I couldn't see it from our balcony.

I heard Mass and went to communion. After Mass the organist
gave a small concert as we toured the church. This church is featured
in the novel "The Da Vinci Code" because of its obelisk. There is
actually a sign that says words to the effect "that dispite claims in a
recent novel this site was never a pagan temple and this is not the
Rose line".
