We headed to Pere Lechase which is the prettiest graveyard I’ve ever seen and the “world’s most visited” apparently.
I printed a map before we left, which saved us a few Euros and meant we could snoop around quickly. It was lucky that I had because it was huge and would have taken hours to look around. There were even street signs to tell you where you were.
One of the famous residents is Jim Morrison. He had his own security guard and two girls crying at his grave.
I think Pere Lechase is an even better graveyard than Highgate. It even had crows to give it a super eerie feel.
We went to see Oscar Wilde’s grave, which was all covered in kisses before we left and headed back in to the city.
We then went up Montparnasse tower, which is the tallest building in Paris. Parisians think it’s an eyesore, so on top of it is the best place to be.
The view was amazing. We took miniature photos of the city (look at the mini cranes) and tried to squish the Eiffel Tower.
We went up the tower just before sunset, so we got to see the city light up!
It started raining really heavily, so we sheltered in the tower and I got a squished penny for my collection.
For fifteen minutes at the start of every hour, the Eiffel Tower has a light show and goes all twinkly. We stayed to watch it before heading off in to the night.
We had my favourite French cuisine, savoury crepes from the Latin Quarter for dinner. The man cooks them fresh in front of you and they’re so delicious.
I went for the Complete Ouef which is egg, cheese and mushrooms. They’re really thick compared to the crepes you get in Britain and I want to try making some of my own at home.
We went for a walk along the Seine. It looks so pretty at night.
We stopped by the bon marche and patisserie to pick up a bed picnic (I love food shopping in foreign countries). We got two huge meringues (I’m not sure how many people one is suppose to feed but we were defeated after a few bites), creme brulle chocolate, bugles, pistachio cookies and beer (which is the same price as any other drink).
