Le Moulin Rouge – not as big as we expected, but they certainly pack the patrons in! Fortunately we were on a tour package and didn’t have to pay the normal prices – drinks would have been €99 regardless of whether it was softdrink or wine! The meal wasn’t especially out of the ordinary, but served very quickly and efficiently. The wine was placed on the table by one waiter and then another waiter came along and opened it (we actually had to pour our own!).
We were also extremely lucky in having a table one row back from the stage – wonderful view, especially for the men!!!The show – how can one describe the spectacular? The scenery and the scenery changes, the music, the dancing, the singing and particularly the costumes – lots of glitter, sparkly beads, feathers, fluff, fishnet stockings and g-strings, and not much else! The show lasted for 2 continuous hours and the highlight would definitely have been the Can Can – such energy! And the snakes – how could a girl (wearing only a sparkly g-string) dive into a large glass tank of water containing very large pythons and swim among them?Definitely a great way to finish the tour.

Will try again. David assures me I am doing everything right. Freezing cold here. David Shan and Jack visited mum today. He's a happy little/big boy. Has a lovely giggle as well. Hope it doesn't snow on their way home. So where are you off to now?
Still would like to know why Les was hugging the Eiffel Tower?? Aren't you supposed to hug trees?
