We’ve been to Paris a few times over the years. November 2010 was more unplanned. It was cold and wet, as expected, but the two of us were both in low-maintenance mood. This resulted in a much more chilled break. We just walked and talked and relaxed. The aim was not to discover, more simply it was to get out of London and away from day-to-day anchors. It worked.
A Parisian cafe is always a good start
My favourite spot in Paris, without a shadow of a doubt, is Montmatre. I convinced Stefano to return here more often than once.
Walking in Montmatre, my favourite spot
Steps to the Sacred Heart
The Sacred Heart (Sacre Coeur)
Notre Dame front view
And the rear view of the Notre Dame - yes we took the obvious tourist pics!
Stefano told me about lovers placing locks in famous places around the world. We found such a place opposite the Notre Dame.

And at night…

Finally, an old icon:
After dinner and whatching the old lady light up, we said goodbye to an old icon
