Paris Montmartre

May 2, 2024

A planning blog entry for a few destinations … here’s a few, all in the same area:

  • Sacré Coure
  • Moulin Rouge (the show not the cafe)
  • Museum Montmartre

The subway is a novel way to approach the area, rather than walking the whole distance — but, tempting to figure out the equivalent to an Uber (in the US, I mean) to get home after the show. We thought 11pm maybe ok, because it would have been only 5pm back home. The show is about 150.00 euros each — well, unless you get the champagne option.

Google Maps, excellent “immersive” view… like driving a drone nearby 🙂

We want to go into the basilica, but are intomidated by (1) The Crowds, and (2) the steep hill

A show on our first day in Paris maybe a disaster (due to jet-lag) or an opportunity to take a brief nap; and, Moulin Rouge maybe less likely to lead to a nap than most shows / movies would be.
