I had planned to make a field trip to Provins, a well persevered medieval town on the outskirts of Paris, but when I got to Gare de l’Est, my train line was suffering from Preturbation and the train I planned to take was perturbed. the next one was an hour away, so I decided to bail on that and head over to Montmartre. Beautiful chilly morning, walked over the Butte, and down the front side. Then a stop for lunch, followed by continued walking all the way to Montorgueil where I stopped in for a tea at Le Compas. I did end up deciding that after my two weeks in the apartment, I didn’t need an additional week of travel and was able to get on the Delta site and switch to and earlier flight and bump up to business class for and additional $200, a considerable deal on a 10 hr. Flight!












Have you experienced any pick pocket attempts on this trip? A trio of young thieves tried to pick my pocket on the metro to Montmartre last October.

Nothing so far, but I wear my Pickpocket resistant pants from clothingarts.com so it would be more challenging. Two apt. Owners who were here just before me, both had wallets stolen on the RERB on the way in from the airport, so they are still around!
