Sacre Coeur

We were able to walk to this spectacular church from our apartment.  The kids and I climbed over 200 stairs to get up the hill to the Sacre Coeur and then another 300+ steps to the top of the dome.  The stairs were all stone.  It was very windy and raining.  When we were at the top, my fear of heights kicked in.  It looked like Ridgely could fit through the stone railings.  I hugged the wall.  Haughton didn't seem phased, but said, "yeah, I get it.  This is a little scary."  Ridgely wasn't afraid at all!  The kids asked me to start walking down without them so they could continue taking pictures.  I said NO WAY.  I wish I had taken some pictures to demonstrate the height (& wind and rain).  Of course, I was much to afraid to take shots at that point though.....  The kids thought that was funny!
