Sacre Coeur

We went to the Sacre on a very grey day so pictures were not so picturesque seeing as it was a white on white effect. This was my favorite of the site I saw in Paris when I was here in July. This time around though, I have different opinions but it is mostly affected by the weather and also decorations. Don’t get me wrong, the Sacre Coeur is still awesome it just was a gloomy day and they were doing some construction on the stair leading up to it. I really like the look of this church and still think it is very different than lots of the other churches I have visited.

I was hoping the bracelet guys would be out so Adrienne could experience being harassed and I got my way! There is this group of guys who make friendship looking bracelet right on your arm. They hang out on the steps of the Sacre Coeur and harass people as they walk by. They are pretty persistent and reach right for your arm and if you are not stern will start making a bracelet before you can even stop them and then ask for you to pay for it. It is actually kind of impressive because they make them in lightening speed and it my friendship bracelet days I never made it right on someone’s wrist!

(The picture is not from this day! HA It is from this summer because it did NOT look that nice out on this day!)
