Parc de la Villette and Montmartre

We rode the metro out to the 19th to rent bikes near Parc Villette and then continued to Montmartre. We strolled home and dined at the old favorite Chartier.
Hans had read about this rental place online.

Parc de la Villette is in the former meatpacking district, and soon will be bustling with activity.

Bea had one of the new P'tit Velib bikes. The Claes Oldenberg is anything but petit.

After returning the bikes we took the Metro to Montemartre and ascended to the basillica in the blazing sun.



We restored our energies at a cafe and romped at a nice playground...


...before heading back into town...

...for a fun dinner at Chartier.
