We had to get one more pastry and coffee fix before leaving Paris for the summer.

I really wanted to visit the catacombs before leaving Paris. After putting it off and putting it off, we finally sucked it up and stood in line for hours to get it.  I’m so glad we did!

This is perhaps the largest and most visited Cemetery in the world and we had a blast roaming around for the afternoon.  It is home to the bodies of many artists and writers including Jim Morrison, Gertrude Stein, Oscar Wilde, and Chopin.  The cemetery is beautiful, massive, and easy to get lost in.

This graffitied chimney had been staring at me from across the street all summer.  I thought it was an appropriate picture as we were wrapping up our last few days in the city.

We finally visited a well known modern art museum and I really enjoyed the special exhibits of Roy Lichtenstein and Simon Hantai.
