After a very rainy week and a dry but very busy Saturday, we (with Janet and her daughter) made it into the Sewers on a very rainy Sunday.
It was drier than we'd dared hope for.
Rats in the sewers
(I know the pictures are blurry, but it was that or no proof of the rats.)
high water levels
the noise of the running water
And of course, Jean Valjean, portant Marius évanoui sur ses épaules
That was quite a treck he made there, just look at the map!
And those spheres were used to clear out the sewers - diferent sizes for different tunnels.
for size comparison - and of course, a Wallace drinking fountain (there are 130+ in the city)
our respective daughters on the Quais de Seine climbing parcours
