Montemarte Historical Walk

A little  groggy from jet lag....but became fully awake when presented with a fresh chocolate croissant wagging in my face and a "Let's GO! From my more than energetic counter part, Sasha.

We conquered the bohemian Montemarte Historical walking tour in seven hours (supposed to take two); Starting at Sacre-Couer Basilica crypt onto a leg burning 300 step spiral stair case climb, then onto Cabaret district where we explored museums and the homes and hang outs of the great artist suchs as Dali, Van Gogh, Renoir, Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec.

 
 


Had a two hour intermission at the darling La Basilica restaurant (wine & food fabulous, but that's a given right?)

Proceeded through seedy district, no need to explain...and emptied out onto the best boulangerie and frommage houses in the district. Making purchases of the most beautiful artisan cheeses to replenish the groceries at the flat.




Took the metro to our temporary home and put tooth picks in our eyes....singing the mantra "I must stay awake till eight"
