Saturday in Paris

Saturday morning I was up and ready early. Dianne, Sue & I took a cab over to Montmartre to soak in the artists markets etc.
Here was just another one of those OMG moments. I really hadn't though much about where we were going, other than the artist area and when we pulled up there was the Sacre Coeur to the right and a panoramic view of Paris to the left.

We walked up the steps and into the cathedral and were greeted by a Mass. The singing was beautiful and, of course, the atmosphere electric. This is a very simple building, compared to many that we have seen, but it 'felt' really good.

We hung around the area for about an hour - coffee, croissant - then we took the petite train down the hill, passed Moulin Rouge, to the Metro.
