Restaurant Le Poulbo

Thursday, August 5, 2010
My French isn't very good so I'm not sure what the name of this restaurant in the Montmarte district of Paris stands for.  But I love the charm of the area.  I bet it looked like this over 100 years ago when the Impressionists made this area their haunt.

Parisian Art Market

Wednesday, July 14, 2010
Montmarte is well known for being the area artists such as Degas, Picasso and Pisarro.  They dined in the local cabarets and were well known in the area.   This is what it looks like today.  But the most signficant landmark is Sacre Coeur, the famous white domed church that overlooks the Paris landscape.

Drummer Girl

The Montmarte area of Paris is an eclectic mix of artists, mimes and musicians.  I came across this beautiful Japanese drummer who was part of a large contingent of musicians performing for a special occasion.
