La Galette des Moulins

Picnicking at Sacre-Coeur is one of those quintessential Paris experiences, so we relished every moment of touristy goodness. 

It was a pleasant uphill walk from the subway to Sacre-Coeur, though we got a little sidetracked.


After refocusing, we stopped by La Galette des Moulins, which seems like a clever play on the nearby windmill. It was quite crowded with tourists, but had all the fixins for a picnic lunch. 

This girl was complaining about the prices

After finding an open spot on the steps of Sacre-Coeur, we settled down with our loot. 


There was nothing extraordinary about our picnic -- just simple sandwiches, cheap wine, droves of tourists and a hazy view of the city -- and yet it was still magical. A quintessential Paris experience indeed!
