A very full day left us trying to climb the tower of Notre Dame after closing. Luckily, a free week long music festival was concluding right down the road, so Evan and I altered our plans. The music stage was in a large paved area near their Hotel de Ville (city hall) and we joined other Parisians by standing in the fountains for an improved view. The chill of the water was glorious after a hot summer day. One of my favorite fountain memories was seeing a nearby group chill their champagne in the fountain as if it was their own personal ice bucket.
I love this photo.
and the story too (:
