Looking down from Montmartre by the Sacre Coeur church
There was a famous painting of this place. If you can see it there is a windmill up on top of the hill. I forget who painted it and what it was called...
Chez Eugene (a restaurant). It's a popular name for painters.
Have you ever seen a cow on grafitti before?
Part of our scavenger hunt around Montmartre. It says something about how it was foggy here long ago because of water. St. Dennis carried his head here...a big long story that we had a British lady explain to us from reading the sign.
Statue of St. Denis carrying his head in the park nearby by.
Another thing on our scavenger hunt. I took this to translate it later. It talks about the next picture of the guy coming out of the wall.
Some guy coming out of a wall. I think he was some kind of artist.
Neat graffiti

you could see through small cracks in locked wooden doors the inside of the church. Here is looking at a stained glass window. You can't take pictures inside, so I took one from outside looking in haha

Looking down the Champs Elyesee to the Arc de Triomph with the tricolor hanging in it. They do that on holidays and special occasions. Today must have been one.
As we walked by the Notre Dame, I snapped a closer picture of the famous gargoyle.

right behind the Notre Dame on the Seine river, how cliche?

On the metro there are huge ads everywhere. Many being for (american) movies coming out soon. This one had a unique message. Most don't feel this way, but a few with paint obviously do.
On the metro there are many beggers and musicians, this being one of them
Does anyone know who this guy is??? His picture is up around Paris. My teachers don't know.
I snapped a picture of a french guy in his tight jeans and completely european look.
