The day of a thousand steps. plus 2

First off, we had 4 hours of sleep. We we're back at it around 9am. This is our metro stop. it's 4 blocks from the hotel.



We went to a flea market in the morning, but didn't take pictures. Too cracked out. Ate a crepe.
It was sucky. We jumped on the Metro and went to Montmartre.
Sacre Coeur!
This is the courtyard with the merry-go-round from amelie. The merry-go-round is real. the telephone booth is not. There was a "silver" guy, like the statue in the film? He smelled.



J.C.'s watching you.

The masses. Everyone was sitting on the steps looking at the view. There was a guy with a guitar (and an amp) singing english songs badly. We sat down and in front of us was a wonky stair that everyone kept tripping over. it was great.

The haters.


We left and wandered down a street behind the Sacre Coeur.

Tiny winding streets. Accordian players and artist drawing profiles. It's like Disney World. 'cept no funnel cakes.


Black tomatoes and white asparagus! it's the end of days!

Super nice citroen. It's got 10's, but he keeps 'em clean.


van goghs pad. what's that you say? I SAID IT'S VAN GOGHS HOUSE!!

Keeping the info rolling and the compass at due north... i think.


We walked and meandered and strolled and all the other words for moving forward with no plan.

Sat in a park, watched the upper middle class rollerblade.


Earlier we had decided to go to the Arc de Triomphe. We just figured we'd get tired of walking and get on the metro. Well, we walked the whole way.

Inside The Arc.

Statue of a guy burping.


You are here.

stairs and stairs

In the distance is Sacre Coeur. We walked that.(!!)

From the roof of the Arc. Dan and I with our buddy Eiffel in the background.

We headed back to our neighborhood. EXHAUSTED. We went to rue moufftard for some food, there's a darling boucherie that sells pickled things and charcuterie. I made a fool of myself to the guy helping me. Everything looked so good.


We settled on a goose rillette, with green olives wrapped with white anchovies. Heaven.
It was 7pm. it was light out still. we had our bed picnic and went to bed. at 7PM!!


AAAAGGGGHHHH! G'NIGHT.......Zzzzzzzz
