"Moonstruck in Montmartre! - April 2003" Personal Page by BeatChick


Amélie Poulain's Café!

I recall this startled white-shirted gent as being the proprietor of the place which Parisophiles will recognize as Amélie's café!!

Van Gogh's Home - Montmartre - Paris

54 rue Lepic

Up the street from Amélie's café and not too far from the Moulin de la Galette.

Architecture in Montmartre

Located on the corner of rue Lepic & rue Tourlaque.

Just up the street from Van Gogh's home and on the way to Moulin de la Galette.

Pretty Little Corner in Montmartre!

This pretty little scene is just around the corner of the Parc Jehan Rictus.

You can see a corner of the "I Love You" wall.

Chapelle du Martyre - Montmartre - Paris

Corner of rue des Martyrs & rue Yvonne-le-Tac. The Chapelle du Martyre where St-Denis was supposedly beheaded is in the background down the street.

I have no idea who these 2 women are.

Martyrium St-Denys - Montmartre - Paris

Here's a bit of Gothic Paris for you!

Chapelle du Martyre sign
9 rue Yvonne-le-Tac

Click on the pic, it's more legible!

Passage des Abbesses

Not too far from Place des Abbesses and the Parc Jehan Rictus.

Go thru this archway along an open passage, weave around a corner, go up some stairs and you'll find yourself opposite Amélie's grocer, Collignon (down the john), and apartment at the corner of 56 rue des Trois Frères & rue Androuet.

I took a picture of the grocer Au Marché de la Butte but it was under restoration so the picture looks awful. I included it here so you can see what it looked like when I saw it - hopefully next trip all the scaffolding will be gone so I may take a better photo.

Au Lapin Agile - Montmartre - Paris

This very bad, grainy, dark photo is of the Lapin Agile located on the corner of Rue Saint Vincent & rue des Saules.

    I’ve just posted the VT MEET IN PARIS 21st and 22nd June 2012
    21st June (the longest day of the year) for the Fete de la Musique.
    This FREE event is not to be missed and you should expect music, dance, local food and many drinks along the way all night long.
    Join me also on Friday 22nd June, to continue in the same rhythm – picnic and dancing along the river.
    Time and place for both meets TBA.

    Hope you can come

    Life in SD couldn't be better. They say that after 20 years or so you miss the seasons. I'll let you know in another 15 if I miss winter! haha
