( I do believe the lab tried to color correct these negatives, due to the "light leaks". I want to shoot another roll than I scan at home to be sure of the nature of this film)

I woke up early to walk through the streets and up the steps of Sacré-Cœur and there are a lot of steps. There is a tram car located on the left-hand side of the church. (If you are facing it.) The church is free to enter but the tram car does cost the price of one Navigo trip to the top.
Tours are available for a price and they allow access to other areas beyond the main church. But after entering the main sanctuary and seeing all of the beautiful stained glass windows, I opted to walk around the small surrounding village of Montmartre.

Paris finally reopened on May 19th, well partially reopened. So, naturally we expats made a long awaited trip to the Lourve. Although the new restricts prevented us from being able to buy food at any of the cafés or restaurants we split a Kinder bar and pushed through 4 hours to see much of what the museum had to offer.
The first thing we rushed to see was the "Mona Lisa". It is a much smaller painting and I can check it off my bucket list. We had no wait to see her, as we arrived at 10am when the museum first openedd.
Due to Covid-19 the museum was virtually empty, especially when we moved past the lower levels and famous works of art. I would suggest that you pack snacks to eat in the designated areas of the museum. It is a lot to see and you will need a break to rest and refuel.
