Easter in PARIS !!

Happy Easter everyone!! It was back to the things-to-see list when I was thinking about my easter break & of course Paris was sitting pretty much at the top so Paris it was! It was absolutely fantastic... took in the Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coeur (Montmatre Cathedral), Notre Dame, Louvre, the river Seine, the Moulin Rouge & the laid back atmosphere of Paris.


Top of the Eiffel Tower shows distances to capital cities around the world.

The River Seine

Arc de Triumphe & the crazy roundabout!







Main entrance to Notre Dame









Side of Notre Dame




Inside Notre Dame was gorgeous












Sacre Coeur (Chapel of the Sacred Heart) - view from my hotel room!




Louvre Museum (main entrance is down through the big pyramid)










Climbed up 234 tight spiral stairs to the top of Sacre Coeur
