This is one of the most magnificent churches in the world. I was so lucky that I actually got to see it, almost 20 years ago.

I visited Notre Dame in 1989. To say that I was profoundly impressed, is putting it mildly. There's almost nothing in this country that compares to the beauty and grandeur of that grand medieval structure. Pictures do not do it justice.

You’re so right: pictures do not do it justice. I got my album out last night and looked at the pictures I took of Notre Dame. I remember when we were inside and looking at the stained glass windows, I felt a lump in my throat and tears came to my eyes. You simply cannot take it all in. Now I wish I had taken twice as many pictures as I did then.
