Montmartre Paris

     We had hired a car and driver for a tour of the city, but had not gone up atop Montmartre to see the cathedral or view Paris from above, My granddaughter wanted cooking lessons so we had spent the next morning at a baking class (I watched) and then called a cab to go back across the river and then to our rented flat near the Eiffel Tower. As we got into the cab I asked the driver to take us over Montmartre instead of around it. I promised him more of a tip than just rounding up. Away we went. The driver seemed to enjoy it as much as we did. We did not have time to see the artists and walk around as we have done before, but my granddaughter got to see one of the best views in Paris (along with the Eiffel Tower and the roof of Galleries Lafayette).
