Musée Cluny

Pierre is caught swooping in to take a taste.
We headed over to the 5th arrondissement to eat some falafel at Maoz, some gelato at Amorino, and to look at books, and to visit a museum.  Sounds like a good day to me.

We visited Shakespeare and Company and found this Canadian bookstore nearby.  Unfortunately, it was closed for the day.

is worth a visit.  It is a museum of the middle ages chocked full of treasures.  Also, part of it is housed in a Roman frigidarium.

 There is a playground outside.
These kings' heads were knocked off of Notre Dame during the Revolution.  They have since been replaced.  These guys were only unearthed recently.
 The Lady and the Unicorn tapestries are here and worth a look.
We got a cool book about the middle ages in the gift shop and the girls even kind of shared it on the way home.
