After we checked out the Louvre, we walked East along the Seine and across to the Île de la Cité. The Île de la Cité is an island in the middle of the Seine. Apparently, it's where Paris started. It's also where Notre Dame is.
We admired the cathedral from outside, then took a walk around inside. It was neat. That makes the second large and famous Catholic church I've been to. Maybe I'll go to St. Peter's Basilica next...
After we had walked around most of the city, we figured it was time for a boat ride. We floated down the Seine. Apparently that's a very touristy thing to do in Paris, but hey, we're tourists. It was a great way to see the city. We saw more great views of the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame.

Toward the end of the boat ride, we floated past this statue. They call it the Statue of Liberty. Apparently, they made a bigger one too, but they gave that one away...

Reminds me of the movie "Charade." They floated down and walked along the river a lot. You've seen great things.
