ParisWe had another day in Paris. Tomorrow we take the train to St.Jean Pied de Port, which is where we start the Camino. But today was about enjoying the city and getting about 10 miles of walking done. We walked up to Montmartre and Sacre Coeur and back down toward Les Halle. Back in 2001 (same trip after 9/11 that I talked about in my 8/22 post), we had our portrait drawn on Montmartre. We didn’t see the artist this time, but we had hoped to say hi and show her what she drew. We’ve included it below because it was 20 years ago and we look like hot sailors. It was a very accurate depiction. :)

🙋🏻♂️ Enjoy Paris...what a great way to start the trip! I think you should leave that 2001 drawing of the two of you somewhere along the Camino...it can act as an inspiration to others! 😉 Pauly

That’s and idea. Although I thought the Louvre might be interested in it. It being drawn by a Parisian and all.
