Day 34: beautiful sacre ceur

Morning stroll to sample more chocolate before leaving the country of chocolate. Then check out time to depart for Paris. We thought it would be a short way to the station but it was not so. Crush got heavier and heavier with each step. We ha to stop half way for falafals. Tots worth the journey though. This place came with a self serve salad bar so I kept topping up my falafal pita with all the different types of salads and sauces until the girls told me we had to get a move on. So off to the station with crush again- but with a lot more energy this time cos we were full!  We arrived in Paris in the afternoon and I was in love with its weather straight away. The sun was shining and I felt a bit hot walking! Imagine that!  After checking in we strolled to sacre ceur. However our hostel was not in the friendliest most beautiful part of town. So walking the streets did not feel safe even with 5 of us together! The men were standing around because no one works. They spit all the time and there is spit all over the footpath but this is all over Paris. We don't understand how they have that much phlegm!  Anyway we got to sacre ceur in one piece and what a site. The view of Paris was gorgeous. What a gigantic city with big things popping up everywhere. The church was impressive too but the guy climbing the light pole and performing soccer ball tricks up there was more impressive! We got our first glimpse of the Eiffel tower too.  Cooked up some pasta and 1 kilo of broccoli for dinner as well as a traditional French entree of cheese and bread.
