Today, we had the opportunity to visit Pere Lachaise Cemetery where only famous people and the rich aristocrats are buried. The cemetery is filled and it is very expensive for a small plot of land now to bury someone. Jim Morrison, the lead singer of The Doors, is buried there and we got to visit his grave as well as Edith Piaf's grave, who is a famous French singer who is buried there as well.
Later that day we got to visit the home of Victor Hugo who wrote Les Miserables. It was very interesting seeing his bedroom as well as his original writing desk.
