In Montmartre, we saw charming, painted tiles by Francisque Poulbot...
...enjoyed our hostess's beautiful balcony gardens...
...and (even though we shunned it as a tourist trap)...
...enjoyed the fact that our closest Metro stop was just opposite the Moulin Rouge!
We went out for a classic, French meal one day...
...to a century-old restaurant, the Bouillon Chartier.
Below: my delicious endive and roquefort salad!
I was over the moon when my twin daughters...
...and my dear friend, Elis...
...joined me for a long girls' weekend.
We spent a leisurely couple of hours...
...at the Montmartre Cemetery...
...where one of the highlights was seeing Edgar Degas' grave.
A walk to Sacre Coeur was next...
...on this fine, spring day...
...and we were richly rewarded...
...with a sweeping view of 'The City of Light'!
Next time: I see some art! :)
