Sounds really creepy - BUT, have you visited Muncie or Elkhart or Terre Haute, IN - CREEPY- STINKY - FRIGHTENING :) I have heard of the Catacombs before, and it is a must visit one day.

At least with bone-mosaic-making, there's some art involved... Josh, that’s truly the most horrifying job I can imagine…except, maybe, for the people who have to manually clean the sewers in Mumbai.

The thing that I found most interesting/creepy was how the bones were primarily "relocated" from flooded graveyards. Can you imagine if your job was to carry them across the city ... or worse yet, cement them together like a mosaic? No thanks! Been there, done that! :D

The Catacombs are one of those things that are pretty easy to miss...it's not like there are big signs advertising all the stylishly-arranged human bones underground! While keeping ourselves entertained on the Chunnel from London, we stumbled across a short paragraph about the Catacombs in our Eyewitness Paris travel book: http://www.amazon.com/Paris-EYEWITNESS-TRAVEL-GUIDE Tillier/dp/1564581853 It makes you think...what the heck else is Paris hiding down there? Hope to see you around here again soon! Melanie Travels With Two Suz, hello and thanks for visiting Travels With Two!

I'm a bit concerned.. in my 5+ month stint in Paris in 2001, I never did see the Catacombs. And I was living in the 14th Arrondissement, near Alesia. Oh boy, I must have been in a much deeper hole than this temple of bones. I actually found your blog on the T-List, and have enjoyed reading the content I've had the chance to check out. Will be visiting regularly! Best, Suz (a.k.a. Lil' Boozie) "3 Troopin' Travelers" Hmm.. I’m a bit concerned.. in my 5+ month stint in Paris in 2001, I never did see the Catacombs.
