  2. I believe we have a Saint Elizabeth of Hungary here, but it doesn't look anything like this one!

    At first glance, it appears to be a plain and simple church, but upon closer inspection, there are some really great details.

  5. A modest church. Two weeks before coming to the US? PNW again?

  9. Scooters are everywhere! When we stayed in the 3eme we had a Sainte Elisabeth de Hongrie on rue du Temple, not far from our hotel.

  10. Simple et sobre, et pas bien grande, si on la juge par rapport au scooter. L'interieur est-il aussi austère?..

  11. Such a thoughtful, humble church. I wonder if the leader of the congregation owns that bike.

  12. It has sort of a SouthWest feel to it.

  15. Simple et discrete, rien a redire sur l'exterieur.

  16. I bet the outside is deceiving and that the inside is much more decorative.

  17. It took me a few seconds to figure out what I was finding odd about this church, other than its plainness. No windows! But I bet EG is right, more to see inside.
