Puis, apr\u00e8s un rapide d\u00e9jeuner juste dehors de la Sainte-Chapelle, nous avons visit\u00e9 l\u2019Op\u00e9ra Garnier, qui a de belles dorures partout.

Nous nous sommes divis\u00e9s en groupes (un pour les v\u00eatements, un pour les souvenirs, etc) pour que tout le monde puisse acheter ce qu\u2019ils voulaient. Apr\u00e8s \u00e7a, on a bri\u00e8vement vu l\u2019Arc de Triomphe et puis nous sommes all\u00e9s \u00e0 la Tour Eiffel. \u00a0Les mesures de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 \u00e9taient tr\u00e8s importantes et longues, mais la vue en haut \u00e9tait magnifique. \u00a0Paris par de nuit, est magnifique !<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff;font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif\">Par: Kira<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-572\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/Curie-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/Curie-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/Curie-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/Curie-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_568\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-568\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-568 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/IMG_20190324_112010-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/IMG_20190324_112010-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/IMG_20190324_112010-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/IMG_20190324_112010-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/IMG_20190324_112010-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-568\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gouter devant le Pantheon &#8211; Snack at the Pantheon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_573\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-573\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-573 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/st-chapelle-e1553630315684-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/st-chapelle-e1553630315684-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/st-chapelle-e1553630315684-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-573\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">La magnifique Sainte-Chapelle &#8211; The beautiful Sainte-Chapelle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_571\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-571\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-571 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/palais-garnier-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/palais-garnier-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/palais-garnier-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/palais-garnier-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-571\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Les dorures de l&#8217;Opera Garnier &#8211; The gold in Opera Garnier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_574\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-574\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-574 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/escargot-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/escargot-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.vsb.bc.ca\/kitsfrenchimmersion\/files\/2018\/03\/escargot-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-574\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Miam les escargots!

Our first stop was the Pantheon, a tomb for notable French citizens like Pierre and Marie Curie, Voltaire and Alexandre Dumas. Inside the domed building are frescos and paintings, patterned floors, a gift shop and the crypt. We took the Metro to visit the Conciergerie de la Cit\u00e9, once a palace, then a prison and now a museum. Its exhibitions are mainly of the French Revolution when it held many people before executions such as Marie Antoinette. Just next door was the Saint-Chapelle, a beautiful 12th century chapel that is not in the austere gothic style that so many cathedrals are. It has the same vaulted arches and stained-glass windows, but the walls and columns are full of colour with intricate fleur-de-lys and castle patterns. The ceiling was navy with stars painted on. We stopped for lunch outside the Opera, or Palais de Garnier, which would be our next monument. With a guided tour, we learned the symbolism carved into all 30 different types of marble. The Opera is an opulent, mysterious construction planned almost singlehandedly by Charles Garnier. Originally reserved for the rich, its halls are more resplendent than Versailles. We went to dinner in the converted 13<sup>th<\/sup> \u00a0century wine cave of a Paris restaurant before heading to Champs-Elys\u00e9es to shop. As it was fairly late by this time, we had 35 minutes before rushing to the Eiffel Tower. It was well-lit in the night, and every now and then glittered with flashing lights. We rode the elevators to the very summit. There was a view of Paris in the night: the Seine, the square below the tower, Notre-Dame etc. It was an amazing experience, and a couple hours later some of us slept on the train back.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif\">Par: Pascale<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Par\/by Pascale et Kira<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ce matin, nous devions nous lever un peu plus t\u00f4t pour nous assurer que nous pouvions visiter le Panth\u00e9on, o\u00f9 plusieurs personnes importantes sont enterr\u00e9es.
