Day 49 - Paris (France) - Because you Can, Can, Can!

"EXCUSE ME, THERE'S BEEN A COSTUME MALFUNCTION" Our final day in Paris, and with a booking to the late session of the Moulin Rouge, followed by an early train to London, we decided to book a hotel for the night rather than commute from our Uncle's. A splendid idea because it meant we were able to relax, check out the Natural History museum (read: see lots of stuffed animals - bit overrated) and then after dinner check out some hooters! Oops, I mean the Moulin Rouge. As mentioned before you have to book well in advance... and I would recommend turning up quite early so you get good seats. As the previous show came out, all the ladies were saying what a fantastic show it was (but everyone does get half a bottle of champagne with their tickets!). Yen and I both enjoyed it and would recommend it. The Moulin Rouge is like the Eiffel Tower... an icon of Paris. And yes, the ladies do forget to put their tops on sometimes (actually I was suprised that not all of them forget) but it's an entertaining cabaret show with dancing and comedy (and did I mention the champagne?!). Ahhh Paris, you gave us a sh*te welcome but now we'll miss you.
LESSON FOR THE DAY: Book tickets early for the Moulin Rouge (and cameras, let alone photos, are not permitted - you'll be asked to check them in if you admit you have one, but save the hassle and just keep it in your pocket).
