Big Organ

Mass at Notre Dame Reims on Easter Sunday did not dissapoint. Big kickass pipe organ 4 stories high reverberated through stone and flesh. Heart and mind. Choir was ethereal. Amazing to hear music written for these spaces actually performed live. Beautiful.
After mass we took a stroll down another avenue to the church of St Remi. Quiet peaceful and empty. A lovely place.
Here's another Joanie pic. Followed by the standard OMG isnt it awesome pic of the west facade.
