A VISIT TO NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL IN 2014

À vaillant coeur rien d’impossible. 

~Jacques Cœur~

“For a valiant heart nothing is impossible.”

In 2014, I was in Paris and had the blessing of seeing Notre Dame Cathedral with my own eyes.  The tragedy of the fire affected me deeply.  

This is my humble tribute to Notre Dame, to Parisiennes everywhere, to the people of France.  

"And just as the Phoenix rose from 

The ashes, she too will rise,

Returning from the flames clothed

In nothing but her strength,

More beautiful than ever before.

Oslo, Norway, July 2014. 

This old home from a bygone era was on the grounds of our hotel.  There were many of them in other areas we visited, some with the most beautiful carvings on doorways and windows. I loved seeing the grass on the roofs, and sometimes there were wildflowers.
