by | Nov 17, 2017 | International Travel, street art, Travel

On this trip we spent a lot of time inside the major museums and a palace, which will have their own posts. In between we wandered around the city enjoying the many Parisian sights, taking full advantage of our metro card.

Sacré-Cœur was fine for a quick visit, the views of Paris are expansive but you can’t see the Eiffel Tower clearly from the city viewing point
