Heh. I was more amused that I *did* know. Every so often I just "know" something in French and I don't know why. "Tour" doesn't end in "e" so I was trying to talk myself out of it being feminine, but my instinct was right.
And then I had to look it up - "tour" as, well, a tour is masculine - le Tour de France. "Tour" as tower is feminine. Weird!
Now you have a bit of snooty French knowledge suitable for driving people crazy at cocktail parties.
Seriously, though the photos were great! I'd totally forgotten about those flat-topped boats on the Seine. Were there a gob of pigeons at Notre Dame when you were there?
