Day 16 - What to do on a Sunday?

---

We started the day by packing our bags, as we have to head to the airport early (10am) and knew we wouldn't want to pack tonight. Many things are closed on Sundays, but most museums are free on the first Sunday of the month, so we had a choice of going to overcrowded museums or wandering around and hoping things were open. We walked (again with the walking...we're averaging 10kms a day or more) over to the Latin Quarter. We found lots of lovely shops, but they were all closed so we window shopped. We had a terrible lunch and then walked around. We walked to the Pantheon, looked around inside, and went in the Crypt (it's a bit creepy if you think about it). Then we walked back to the hotel.

Home tomorrow...

The Panthenon
A lovely Grecian style building.

Going to the Crypt
Creepy.....

Tomb of Victor Hugo
Author of Les Miserables, etc.

The Panthenon
Not to be confused with the Parthenon which I keep calling it.

Entrance Way
I've noticed you should always look up with all of these monuments. The design is fantastic.

The floor inside
I thought the design was neat.

The Foucault pendulum
Demonstrating the rotation of the Earth

This symbol is everywhere
Or possibly these words/letters? I have no idea what it means.

Tomb of Alexandre Dumas
Author of the Three Muskateers, etc.

Leaving a section of the crypt
More creepy then before....

Run!!
The fire monster is coming to eat you.

Recharge your car
This might be why I don't see many gas stations in Paris....perhaps electric cars are much more common then back home?

Paris Sorbonne University
Their website tells me this was one of the first universities in the world.
