The rest of November 7th


And now the bits I didn't have time to write in yesterday:

Cool thing at the Middle Ages Museum: Next to the tapestery called "The Grape Harvest" there was a minature in relief with brail on the faces and a little brail description below it. I have never seen anything like that before!

On the way to Notre Dame, I passed another church, which turns out to be the Church of St. Steven, from which there was eminating orgn music. So I stopped in and found myself in a lovely little church full of beautifully sweeping pilars and arches, and a combination of old and very modern stained glass. Later I read in my guidebook that this was the site that a "defrocked priest" stabbed another one to death - talk about wierd!

After my day of wandering, I met Joy, along with Anne and Avie, and we all went to a Scottish Pub near Avie's apartment to play a "Round the World Quiz." It was much like Trivial Persuits, and a good deal of fun as most of the bar was filled with people speaking some sort of accented English and participating in this game.
