Euro-Trip

Spent the day in the Montmartre district of Paris which used to be it's own little town around a hill outside Paris's walls where the stuffy Parisians could go to to let their hair down , this is where the Moulin Rouge is, where Van Gogh and Picasso spent a bit of their lives and where the Church of Sacre Crouer is with a painter's square near by.

We started with a great free (with tips) tour of the area with a local Monmartre-an (who prefer not to be cslled Parisian) who took us through all the local side streets and dodged all the crowds while pointing out all the intetesting parts of the area which is how I got a baguette from the bakery that won the seats for best baguette in 2015 which means they win the right to providr for the French President breakfast for a year.

Oh and we ate at a Tibetan restaurant for dinner once I verified its street cred :p We also had coffee at CB cafe which as it turns out stood for "cooka burra" cafe and was Australiasian themed so we're kinda mixing it up a little foodwiseWeiterlesen
