Breakfast in the Moulin Rouge

[Laurie]

No reason for this thread, just a random, once only, memory of one morning in Paris just as the sun came up, around 5.00am.

Been there many years ago...wouldn't go twice...

For some reason, I didn't find Paris nearly as enchanting as I thought I would. I liked Rome and Florence much better.

I saw the Moulin Rouge as a teen. Experienced my first taste of pink champagne, and a few other delectable treats as well. Merci Paris.

Funnily enough, nether did I, apart from the odd memory, as described. My wife loved it and went back.

I too preferred Rome, but wouldn't want to back there.

Now Vienna ! The only city I have ever been in that I could happily spend the rest of my life in.

I always likened being in Vienna it to standing on a vibrating violin string, full of excitement and potential.
