So this is Sacred Heart basilica on the tallest point in Paris. It was dedicated in 1919 and so it's a relatively new basilica, but Lisa and I REALLY liked it a lot! You can't take photos inside - you have to dress appropriately - you can't talk loudly....in other words, I felt more a reverence and 'good spirit' there than I did at other churches, etc.
Then to top it off, the sisters/nuns came out and started singing these beautiful 'diddies' (sorry, I don't know what they are) with a lyre-type instrument in French. It was truly beautiful and was an spiritually-uplifting experience. I felt 'peaceful' there, and probably for this reason, and the fact that the surrounding area called Montmatre is just plain cool, I think this was my favorite area of Paris....
I decided that I have a problem with pride, because I LOVE to views and to look down on things ;)
Enjoy the view everybody...
And so we come to an end on our French/Paris journey together. It was TRES BIEN and I loved it! Thanks to everyone who made it possible and once again, I definitely recommend everyone going! Au revoir!
