Museum Pass - day three

We started off going up the Notre Dame tours - it was freezing!  We waited for an hour in line (but we were there 30 minutes before the doors opened.  It was cool to go up again, but definitely too cold and windy.

Then we went to the Conciergerie.  It was AMAZING.  They had the coolest art exhibit, REVE DE MONUMENTS.  I loved it.  It was gothic castle art exhibit from the middle ages to modern day.  They had a number of Gustave Doré pieces and it was just overall great.  I really really enjoyed it.

We also went to the Cluny museum, which is a middle-ages museum, but we went straight to "la Dame à la Licorne" tapestries and they were very cool!  We then popped into the Pantheon for a peek about.

We finished the day by a little shop - Dawali.  I bought myself two really cool bracelets.  One of them - is the one I saw on a girl in the metro - I complimented her on it and she told me where she got it, but it was my first or second week here and I didn't understand (+ I never would have guessed "Dawali").
