Last day in Paris - part 1 of 2
Even after a full day of Versailles on Tuesday I bucked it up and did more sightseeing. I realized I had not been to Notre Dame nor the Louvre. This part covers Notre Dame for the most part.
These pictures are in reverse order. The bridges are some of the ones I passed walking from Notre Dame to the Louvre museum. With the Seine River s-curving through Paris, there are lots of bridges of all different kinds.
Notre Dame's outdoor architecture is much more fascinating that the interior in my opinion. The church is celebrating 850 year anniversary this year with renovations including new bells. There is also a large pavilion in front where you can sit and people watch.

Old Chicago beer tour
As.many if you know there is a whole gang of us that are on the Old Chicago beer tour. It is a frequent shopper program for beer drinking.
Each tour consists if 110 beer. Your are not supposed to repeat beers within a single tour. Along the tour you can get a variety of gifts which can also include cash equivalent. I just got $20 for passing the halfway point in my currrent tour.
Denver is the home of Old Chicago chain of restaurants. For the longest time I didn't realize there is this one just a few blocks from my hotel. Since I have to go out for dinner and usually have a beer or wine, I figure I might as well work on my tour.
This chocolate stout from England is delicious. And that is precisely what is so cool about the tour. You get and have to try all types of beer.
