Along the Seine...............

What a varied skyline................I was so wowed by all the windows, roofs, turrets, etc.  I probably missed a lot along the way, but this is what interested me.
Isn't this incredible?!  Love those chimneys.....and those tiny round windows to the attic rooms.  All that decorous trim makes it look more like a cake.

In between these two buildings sits the tiniest house in Paris......two rooms.  ")

Marvelous structure!  I especially like that the end building has a curved roof line.  I really like the shorter building to the right, too.......more of the old-French architecture.

Notre Dame

This reknowned church needs no introduction......and it was within blocks of our hotel.  It was amazing how many times we viewed it from other locations.  The architecture is mind boggling.  I was fascinated by those flying buttresses and the beautiful rosette window.  (You will see a better photo of the window when I post our photos from the River Seine boat trip.)  This is another place that I saw only from the outside.  I kept thinking I could return to places.....and this would have been the easiest to return to........but it just seemed as though our time in Paris passed much too quickly.  (dreaming of a return trip ").
