    After lunch, I dragged Jeff and Jill to check two Atlas Obscura sights. The first was Le Passe Muraille which is a sculpture of a man emerging from a wall. This is based on local folklore. It took a bit of effort to find this sculpture as it was tucked away on a side wall. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/le-passe-mu…

    The second sight we looked for was Moulin de la Galette, Montmartre's less famous windmill, the more famous one being the Moulin Rouge. More here: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/le-moulin-d…
