Jackie, a dear friend that I met in L.A, with her three kids Marco, Michele and Francesca, just arrived in Paris for a very brief vacation. As usual, Maurizio was sick in the hotel.... They spent the entire day at Disneyland Paris and then, famished, they came to the appointment in Pigalle by 9.30 pm. We walked up on Montmartre and we ate at the Taverne de Montmartre...soup d'onion for the kids and pierrade for us! Soooooo delicious! I thought of Nico: he would have loved all that meat. And of course we thought about Etta: you really should have been there!
After dinner we went for a walk to the Basilique du Sacre-Coeur where we spent some time looking at the panorama. It was dark..and fogghy :)
Then we realized what was going on around us: drug dealers, pot-smokers, drunks...Not exactly the right place to be around midnight with kids. We took the Funicular for the fastest escape route. Save!
Jackie went back to her hotel by taxi. Next time we'll meet in Rome. We went back home by Metro.
Of course, what does a 10 years old kid do at 1 am, in the Metro in Paris? Read....
Beeeeeeeeeeello!
