Christmas Day

There were lights all over and it was absolutely gorgeous! People everywhere, children glowing, and cameras flashing; joy filled the air. Even though it was stressful trying to keep up with my family, I was still able to soak in all the beautiful sites around me. The food was wonderful and the shopping was a ton of fun as well. This was a magical experience that I will never forget. 



The Notre Dame Cathedral was the same story:  just as breath taking as the rest of the city. They set up a twenty meter Christmas tree in front and a manger inside. I could tell that Christmas is one of the most important holidays celebrated there because the ceiling tells the Christmas story year long. The detail was amazing; I've never seen anything like it in my life.
