A large group of us students visited Sacre Coeur on Thursday, reuiring us to walk up a thousand steps at least, up a steep hill. But the view and the sunshine was well worth it. Plus, the workout was a nice way to burn off the falafel and cookies I had eaten just before. Darn patisseries ! Above is a frontal view of Sacre Coeur and below is Charlemange with his victorious pose pointing towards the specks of blue sky.
