Favorite pictures of Paris so far...

I should set this up for you. Tuesday was our field trip day with the Hemingway class. We went to Montmartre where Moulin Rouge is. We walked through this cute neighborhood and up the steep hill, and many steps. The walk was long, and I definitely got my exercise for the day. At the top of the hill was the Sacre coeur. Sacre coeur means "Sacred Heart." It was amazing.


I'm definitely hanging this on my wall when I get home. It's just beautiful!

As I was standing there I began to think (disclaimer: I don't know very much about this church, except that it's beautiful and provides a great view of the city) of the people in the little neighborhood down the hill and imagined them walking to church, up all those steps and never complaining once like I wanted to. I think that may have been what stopped me from complaining. Who could complain about going to see something so gorgeous? The people who attended the church probably walked up that steep hill often and enjoyed every moment, so I will too. 

From the church we had an incredible view of the city. I want to go back and see it at night time. 

It's like i'm in another world.

Do you think the people who see this view every day still marvel at how wonderful it is?

Hmm...
