Paris Day 4

8:30 PM August 19, 2011 Eurostar back to London

Last day in Paris :/

Chelsea and I went to go check out the Catacombs. Longest line ever. We waited about 1 1/2 hours to get in. I suppose it was so that it won't be crowded inside. It used to be a quarry and they turned it into a mass burial ground before the French Revolution because the grave yards were full. It's 2 kilometers long (according to the museum information). It's cold, dark and damp. Near the end, you enter the "Empire of Death" where the bones are laid out and arranged. Some of the arrangements are more artistic, the other arrangements are just piles of bones neatly stacked. It's cool, and creepy at the same time.

Last minute shopping at the Galeries Lafayette and I got me some LONGCHAMP LE PLIAGE! Yay!
