In Paris, it's all about the angels!
And the gold. There are angels everywhere keeping company with the gargoyles and the saints. The architecture is ornate and amazing. To think that all this has been there for longer than Canada has been a country! The dome is from the top of a large palacial building that once housed a hospital for soldiers and others suffering from infirmities. There is a tomb of one of the mighty under the dome.

Now that's a turtle! Or several, actually, that ringed a huge sculpture in the middle of this fountain. I have many more pictures, but not much time to download them.
