Sacré-Coeur - Paris

It’s been a long and tiring day.
The heat is baking and we are at the top on the steps leading up to the Sacré-Coeur.

I would like to blame the tiredness on walking up all those hundreds of steps. But we cheated and took the lift.

Three of us are sitting on the steps outside the Sacré-Coeur. Waiting for the others to come out of the church. We have managed to find a spot that isn’t too hot and that is in the shade.

There is a beautiful view from here.
Being so high up,
Over looking Paris.

I look down at the steps, and remember that part of Amelie is filmed here. The part where she leaves a note for the guy whose book she has.

I love that film.
The little things she does,
The little nice things.

I open my bag and take out a card.
I feel slightly nervous as there are so many people around.
But I look around and see that everyone seems so busy, no one is paying any attention to me. I shouldn’t worry so much.

I slip it into a little gap between the metals on the handrail, just before the entrance to the church.
