Montmarte
I took the train to Paris and walked up to Montmarte as soon as I left the train station. It was about 65 degrees outside, beautiful sunny Spring day. I visited the Sacre Coeur, walked up the the top of the dome, up the 300 stairs, then visited the catacombs. Then I walked to the Montmarte cemetary, and walked around the narrow cobblestone streets. I walked into a bakery and said one of the only things I knew how: Pan au chocolate. Merci.
I walked around the streets, eating my pastry, soaking in Paris, soaking in the sun, reflecting on my weekend in London and how lucky I was to be getting a free trip to Paris! Finally, a payoff from my expensive graduate program.
I was only here for about 4 hours, then took the metro over to meet up with the rest of the school group, and we were off to cat around France for 4 days.
