The relative calm here has ended ... the mobs who are taking advantage of Easter break have descended upon Paris, and I have retreated to my apartment. I should be used to crowds after living in New York, but even there, I tend to favor seculsion over interaction in the face of throngs.

The photo below is a line of people waiting to get into the Palais de Justice complex, which includes the Sainte Chapelle church. I simply stopped to snap their picture.

If this is an indication of the crowds over the next few days, I'll find other diversions for a few days.
