You may guess that this cheerful street scene is set in Paris, but where will you find it? The 18th arrondissement's red icon and the steep stairwell give the game away. We're on the route some unfit folks regret taking - the long spiral staircase up from the Abbesses metro in Montmartre.

The station's street-level entrance is a gem too, with its rare glass art nouveau canopy by Hector Guimard, in an idyllic little square, or 'place' (of the Abbotesses), rather.

So, if you're flagging around step number 39, 64 or 108, take a break and enjoy some of the images decorating the walls; photos going down and paintings on the way up. And pretend you're glad you didn't take the lift!

There's not much remarkable about this photo if it's not that it's the first time I've shown the entire "I Love You" wall and at a perfectly conventional angle to boot!

Decorating this wall at Abbesses since 2000 (tho' it seems longer), "I love you" is written over 300 times in different languages and tourists enjoy finding their own country's scrawl amongst the calligraphic chaos!

Walls symbolise division and separation, so the artists wanted to create something that brought people closer. A fun fact is that the shards of red are bits of a broken heart that could, in theory, be put back together again!

I wrote about today's sister photo at the start of this chapter, so here's some random uplifting news.

I climbed three new 'Wainwright' mountains in the Lake District yesterday but the most satisfying peak I conquered was two huge lumps of Lakes Ice Cream.

I also scaled the roof of my parents' garden room to clear a gutter and sweep some moss off that had probably been knocked down from a higher gutter by crows looking for bugs to eat.

If that weren't vertigo-inducing enough, I'm now gazing up at the giddy heights of 2500 When Lady Eiffel Smiles Chronicles coming up shortly. That's a quarter of ten thousand daily Paris-inspired photos and texts and quite some pile of piffle… 🌀

But what goes up must come down, so come on down from admiring Notre Dame's brand new steeple and read my next WLES, up soon!
