Plein de couleur


Saint-Germain-des-Prés
—begun in the
6th century as a Benedictine abbey—is the 
oldest church in Paris.  The current 
renovation has restored this once 
dark and dingy church to its colorful 
and light-filled glory.

[To see more churches from around the
world, visit inSPIREd Sunday.]

Photo Op


Don't know whether these are professional
models or just a couple having their
picture taken by a pro (and me).  The latter,
I think; there were several couples posing by the
lit-up pyramid at the Louvre that night.

Pomp and Circumstance


One day last September, I was about to
have lunch across the street from the
Palais du Luxembourg (home of the French
Senate), when this colorful crew
showed up.  Found out that they accompanied
the new president, Emmanuel Macron,
as he came to address the chamber.

Saint-Sulpice


At this 17th-century church—the
second-largest in Paris—you
can see something
 beautiful
everywhere you look.
