- Harvey Hotel Paris France
- Raw, Cloudy, some sprinkles of rain
This morning we went to Mass at the Church of St. Therese. Mass was held in the crypt bearing her name and the children chanted parts of it - very beautiful.
Then we went over to Notre Dame where a high mass was in progress. Had a good dinner at a very swanky restaurant* across from the church at a very swanky price.
From there we went to Napoleons' tomb where one's breath is quite taken away with the atmosphere and beauty of the place. Then went down the Seine in a boat to see all over again all the places we had traversed plus many more. Met a woman from California, about our age, travelling all alone. Intends to do Europe U.K. Scandinavia etc. Some courage!

There are a number of postcards of Napoleon's Tomb but I am not sure what the rules of use from them are, so didn't post them.
