Gloomy Skies over the Notre Dame

Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris, January 2020

It was my very first time to visit Europe last December holidays and before I went home on the second of January, I really had to see the Notre Dame, even if it was closed. Due to the Transport Strike, we were only able to alight at Hotel De Ville de Paris via Paris Metro Line 1 and walked our way towards the church area. 

The remnants around the church area due to the fire last 2019 was very sad sight to see. But there is a feeling of hope just by looking at the church structure. Let us never stop praying for a better world, a better place to live in not just for us but for the next generations ahead.

    1. That's true Margy. Even if I was half way across the globe, I did feel the sadness
