Comment: Great music and atmosphere! Drinks a bit pricey with the currency exchange (at the time). The bartenders were great and a lot of fun…aka took our camera, took a billion pictures of themselves posing, and JL got the number of the cute one 
. The french guys there were a bit over the top too…but all fun and games. J Downfall? Its hard to catch a cab and subways are closed by the time you want to leave.

“The Catacombs of Paris or Catacombes de Paris are a famous underground ossuary in Paris, France. Organized in a renovated section of the city’s vast network of subterranean tunnels and caverns towards the end of the 18th century, it became a tourist attraction on a small scale from the early 19th century and has been open to the public on a regular basis from 1867.”- Wiki
Comment: Something you should try to make time for aslong as you 1. aren’t afraid of dark tight places, 2. bones and such 3. attempting to steal skulls (they check your bags since apparently teenagers like doing that). Its a decent walk underground but make sure you know where you are when you resurface!

Montmartre is a fun place to go at the end of the day and meet lots of people, listen to music, sing along, and watch the sunset. Sacré-Coeur on top of Montmartre, the highest point in Paris.
”Montmartre is a hill (the butte Montmartre) which is 130 metres high, giving its name to the surrounding district, in the north of Paris in the 18th arrondissement, a part of the Right Bank. Montmartre is primarily known for the white-domed Basilica of the Sacré Cœur on its summit and as a nightclub district. The other, older, church on the hill is Saint Pierre de Montmartre, which claims to be the location at which the Jesuit order of priests was founded. Many artists had studios or worked around the community of Montmartre such as Salvador Dalí, Modigliani, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh.”- Wiki
