Things were getting more crowded
|
This was ok until the bus came along side us as well. Then we got a little nervous.
|
Everybody ok?
|
Almost there. Kelsey was always noticing the cute little McDonald's signs.
|
Made it.
|
|
Checking out the posters at the Moulin Rouge.
|
Coming across the street to take some pictures
|
Crazy tour train comes by
|
Our time for good pictures is interrupted by...
|
German tourists on rollerblades. This was hysterical, as they we trying to do the can-can for this picture.
|
Julie can keep a straight face after one of the rollerbladers yells to a passing tour bus, "Hello tourists! We are from Germany!"
|
Finally the crazy rollerbladers leave.
|
Now we've biked to Sacre Coeur and guess what, have to climb more stairs.

|
So we didn't walk up there, we took a tram. But there are more stairs to come.
|
Scene from movie Amelie was shot here. Where's John (he's waving) and Amy?
|
Last stairs to climb to get inside Sacre Coeur
|
So are we ready to go in?
|
Yes
|
Yes too
|
We're a bit tired
|
No pictures can be taken inside Sacre Coeur, but these are from the top. Of course there were more stairs to climb.
|
Again, our friend the Eiffel Tower in the distance
|
It was unusally hot in Paris (at least that's what everyone was telling us), so plenty of people were about in shorts.
|
Kelsey enjoying the view.
|
Julie and Amy "minding the way". That was the last rule for entering the top of Sacre Coeur. This rule caused some debate as to what it meant.
|
Looking down. Our bikes are locked up somewhere down there.
|
Kelsey happy that we don't have to go up any more stairs.
