Dimanche - St Sulpice, Notre Dame, St Chapelle

Service at St Sulpice
The prelude started at 10:15, which we all wanted to see. So Kim, Judy & I (Kathy) left from breakfast because Mindy & Cindy were getting a second cup of cafe au lait. We got there at 10:25 & heard a little of the famous organ. Mindy & Cindy got there at 10:45 after starting in the wrong direction for 15 minutes - they walked for an hour. There was lots of construction around the church, so the first entrance Judy, Kim & I entered was into some orthodox service - they wouldn't let me try to walk through it to see if we could get to the main chapel so we walked to the rear entrance & walked to the back where all the rest of the Americans were. Hey, Deb - I couldn't help but laugh at Judy being deaf, mute & dumb at the passing of the peace - no kisses near us.

Kathy and Kim left after the service to go to Musee D'Orsay, while Mindy, Cindy and Judy stayed for the music after the service. We then went up the 65 step spiral staircase to go through the organ chamber while Daniel Roth was playing for the 12:00 mass.
