Day 2 Continued:

Next we visited Sacre Coeur: Sacred Heart
... no pictures or talking allowed inside (strictly observed). Sacre Coeur is built on the steepest hill in Paris. Easiest was to reach the Church is by a tram which is located between a set of steeps stairs (the tram really helps, esp when you have a carry on and a back pack with you). Building started in 1875 and completed in 1914.
Some pics of Sacre Coeur:



Now to the Arc de Triomphe, built in 1806:

This is my "tour guide": Jean Marie Broutin, some of you may recognize from Sunday, 11:00am Mass (and, of course, Patty Broutin's husband):
