We had gone running to get to the top, then gone to mass at Sacre Couer, and just happened across the funicular walking downhill from the church.

It's clean, well run and your Paris Metro card works at the gate. It's also great for people watching and views

I didn't see any gypsies and I did see security and police. There were multiple people at the door with boxes of cigarettes in their hands... Gare du Nord is super convenient as the Metro is directly connected to the station. When leaving Gare du Nord to the UK, there is a separate hall which entails leaving the EU and entering the UK before going through security. The halls were pretty full with numerous shops selling sandwiches and coffee. Seats were scarce and rather a hot commodity.

Fortunatley, we had a disruption with our train back to London, so had to return to the station and security, police, and the military were all there to assist. They made a scary and stressful experience much better by the service and assistance they provided. Everyone was so positive and reassured us we would get to our destinations. The stations itself is breathtaking like the other structures throughout Paris. It is directly connected to the Metro so we didn't have to go far to get to our hotel in Paris. If you need to purchase a metro pass, you can change the language to English by clicking on the British flag. It is fast, easy, and convenient. If you are unsure, you can always ask.

The world's largest underground railway station, the Station Chatelet - Les Halles is located…read moreunderneath the Westfield Forum des Halles shopping center. It's also the most convenient place to take a connection from the Paris Metro line system to the RER airport lines. Loaded my final trip for 2,5€ on my reloadable metro card on the morning of Day 7, taking line 1 to stop Chatelet. I made a mistake here: knowing I needed to connect to RER Line B, I couldn't find any signs so ended up going outside. Google maps seemed to indicate that, but thinking back, I am realizing that there must have been an underground connection between them. Navigating the outside with luggage in the rain was difficult. But after entering the shopping mall, I just followed the signs for RER. I found a machine to purchase an airport ticket, but it refused to work with my card that I had been using all along on Metro (it had the airport option grayed out...which was frustrating...showing that it was the right machine, but that I was doing something wrong). The only option was a bus to the airport which I definitely did not want. I then began to wander around until I found a staffed office. I tried to explain my situation to the older gentleman..he scanned my ticket, got exasperated (I think with the situation, not me) and told me I needed to go a ticket office to get it fixed. I was going to leave, but then a younger woman intercepted and told me she could fix it. She took my card, did 'something' to it, and then told me I could use the machine now. Sure enough, when I scanned the same card, it now gave me the option to purchase an airport ticket (13€). There is definitely something strange about how you can have the right paper ticket, but if it wasn't initially set-up a certain way, it won't work in all case. Not a good thing for a tourist. I paid the $15.18 (13€) and used it to scan through the gates (which were for all RER various lines). I then followed the signs for the airport line. I boarded the first train that came, and it ended up being OK. The journey took a while, going through five stops to terminal 2. Most people got off before then. I got off at the last stop, and had to scan my ticket to exit before I could enter the airport. Got to the airport station by 11:33. I had left the hotel around 10:15 so it takes a while...an Uber would have been around $35 for the journey. I'm glad that I experienced it, especially since I was by myself. But I see the use of Uber when in Paris next time.

Are the stations and tunnels old & dingy? Sure. But they do their jobs. It reminded me of the subways in NYC because the trains were so frequent and accessed everywhere I wanted to go. Compared to San Francisco, it was amazing. Just be aware at the Montmartre station, the stairway up goes round and round and round forever. It was never ending, but I was very grateful to not have been one of the many tourists there who were lugging their rolly bags up those never ending steps with them. Some of the agents working in the Metro stations don't speak english, even in the main large stations. Luckily the little station I used for my main departure route had an english speaker and suggested I get a Navigo card since I was staying 2 weeks. It cost 10 euros, you need to get a photo (much smaller than US passport size, and they will cut it down to fit) and they will upload whichever amount pass you want on here - weekly pass is minimum and those are from Monday to Sunday, no matter which day you purchase it on. The Navigo card is good for ten years. Just buy your tickets and keep them on you. The 2 weeks I was there, on three occasions, Metro Police/Officials checked everyone for their tickets. Two times was in the tunnels of I don't remember which stations, once was just before arriving to the Palace of Versailles when they fined a handful of confused tourists and an international american student 35 euros each. A ticket to the Palace of Versailles Rive Gauche station from the Saint-Placide station in the Louvre area was just 4.15 euro. If you're disabled, RATP may be difficult to navigate. They do say they've made many stations disability friendly with escalators and elevators, but it didn't seem that way with many of the stations. They're still working on it. Paris is imo not a friendly place for disabled and wheelchair users. Alas, too old and too many cobblestones. Things that make the city amazing also has its drawbacks and this is one of them.
