The arc is in the center of a huge roundabout. There are at least twelve major roads that intersect here. Thankfully there is an underground walkway to cross to the center.
Don't know why this guy looks so horrified. He's located at the top of the arc.
Sacre Couer from the top of the arc
Eiffel Tower from the top of the arc
LOTS of stairs to reach the top.

Crepes always taste better when you can see the Eiffel Tower.
Despite having tickets to the top, we only made it to the second level. The top was closed thanks to the ice. The River Seine is in the background.
Champ de Mars in the background.

Cool!
I'm personally afraid of heights, so I think I'd have been pretty happy to not have to go all the way to the top.
What a cool adventure you're having there! Love hearing everything about it. :)
You can also see lots of those guys grabbing the handles on their blankets and running every time the police ride their bikes through the area... Very entertaining.
I loev the picture of Hailey next to the cuckoo statue, although you'd be horrified too if you had to wear a smurf hat ;)
