  • Be careful around Sacre Coeur because there a hoards of people willing to make your wallet lighter. The favourite trick involves a man who comes up to you, and offers to show you something. He then puts a piece of cotton round your finger and deftly weaves a crappy bracelet. The person is trapped and can't get away without paying, because these guys are huge. I saw about half a dozen operating on the steps up to the church.
