Sunday on the trains

Thankfully we did some stair training at Woolooware station.

We left early and walked across the islands to St Michel to catch the RER to church. The organisation of the complicated RER lines is fascinating. One board tells whether the train is short or long and where they stop, another board tells where on spaghetti line they finish and the train's name. Today we caught Gota and Romi.

We made it to church in time [after the bag check at the door] to hear the music piece beforehand on the beautiful organ. The sermon was by Dr Tony Campolo, a noted U.S. speaker who spoke for half an hour with one glance at a scrap of paper in his hand. We thought he was OK too.

As it was the first Sunday of the month most museums are free. So, back to St Michel to the Musée Cluny just to the gift shop then three changes of Metro to Cité de l'Architecture. Some of the interchanges are not close, so it was a long walk and up stairs to go over train lines on a crowded Sunday. We looked at the medieval and renaissance area of Cité de l'Architecture which consisted of plaster moulds of church doors and exceptional buildings taken in the 1800s to put in a museum.
