Montmartre (Day 2)
Today I awoke to the sights and sounds of Paris outside my window. I love the sound of city life. On my agenda today, Montmartre. My friend (who has only lived 13 consecutive summers here) Patricia and I went there via the Metro. You just take line 1, then connect with line 2, then line 11, then the funicular up the steep hill and voila! You're there! We strolled the streets lined with artists, then went to Sacre-Coeur a beautiful white church dedicated to the sacred heart of Jesus. It sits majestically on the hillside overlooking Paris. After our day's outing we came back to Paris and dined on Moules frite which is a big pot of mussels and fries. Mine were "Moules curry au Madras" to satisfy the curry lover in me. And what did I do afterwards? In typical Parisian fashion, I strolled the banks of the Seine of course.
Another perfect day in Paris.
