Paris 2

I first visited Paris in 1976 with Gill and Jude in the VW beetle, staying at the Bois de Boulogne campsite. Since then I have seen the finale to the Tour in 1993, and passed through many times but I have never done too much of the tourist thing. Memorably one year I hitched a ride with a doctor, we arrived into Paris at 5 in the morning, and he drove us around the traffic-free city pointing out all the main sites and boulevards with gusto.

So this weekend was the first time I had ever been to Montmarte and the Sacre Coeur where I took this shot of a football-busker on the steps beneath the church. I am really pleased with this shot.
