Here we go again!

Sainte-Trinité, Quartier de la Nouvelle Ath

I went on a great walking tour of the quartier de la Nouvelle Athènes this morning with a bunch of parents from Th's school. We saw the buildings that George Sand, Chopin, Marie Dorval, Talma, La Païva, Thiers and others lived in the late 1840s. I also learned how you can tell from looking at the wrought iron designs on certain doors whether they were the homes of Lorettes or not. Fun stuff. I should have taken more pictures.
