Notre Dame, Sunday Oct. 08, 2006

It was nice to be there on a Sunday and catch a fleeting glimpse of the Sunday Mass. Notre Dame Cathderal is not only a place of worship but a incredibly beautiful work of art. The Cathedral facade is worth a look. The glimmering candles everywhere in the cathedral creates an aura of serenity. Several altars around the cathedral place idols from the bible and the walls depicts scenes from the bible.

In the center stage is the statue of Notre Dame and the priests are conducting the mass, in french of course :(. We both studied the cathedral facade a bit following "Rick Steves". This was probably my first rendezvous with christianity and the bible and all was very intriguing. We decided against doing the 400 steps climb into the Cathedral just watching the enormous line for the tickets. Instead we went on one of the many bridges of Seine river to enjoy some good street music and a street show.
