The Latin Quarter

We walked thru the Latin Quarter on a rainy day, this is a bridge over the river to get there, on each side all that gold color is from all the individual locks that people have locked to the sides.  Pam researched (Googled) this and learned this appears to be a trendy thing people do, mostly couples signifying  their love, locked forever, throw the key into the river kind of thing.   Apparently, this is happening on bridges in other cities.   Here's a picture of Notre Dame, we didn't go in.  Pictures too of statues near the entry of the Latin Quarter.   This area was quite touristy, lots of shops and restaurants with barkers trying to get you to come in.  We passed through quickly and left.
