Written on Tuesday, December 11, 2007 Today it was finally nice out which was a peasant change from all the rain we had been having. Brittany asked if I would go to the Sacre Coeur with her and although this would be my third journey I really like it so I didn’t mind revisiting it. This time around I asked about La Place de Terre where all the artist set up there easels and we found. I hadn’t realized that I had actually never visited Montmartre. I guess I had thought it was just the area around the Sacre Coeur but I didn’t realize it went behind the church. I’m so glad I did come back with Brittany and finally got to see the awesomeness that is Montmartre. It is by far my favorite area in Paris and I can’t believe I had never been here. There are so many cute little restaurants and stores with really awesome things. There were lots of tourist things but they were slightly classier and there wasn’t quite as much crap. There was also the square where we got to pursue all the art and see artists working on paintings and drawing. It was really cool! I really wanted to buy a piece of art to hang in a house when I have one hahah and be able to say oh I bought that in Paris but it’d be hard to travel and that is way too much planning ahead. Instead I bought some old fashion prints that I have been eyeing in all the tourist shops. Oh and we got savory crepes that were so cheesy but good and ate them on the steps of the basilique. It was another fun day with Brittany!
