Our last country...France

It was a long day on the bus today, and we were delayed by 1 hour due to construction on the highway.  This made for a rather rushed day when we finally arrived in Paris, but we are here.

When we spend so much time on the bus, our tour director has ways to keep us entertained like showing movies or doing trivia about our tour.  Hey today I won a prize.


You can imagine the laughter.  It is actually perfume... you dirty minded people!

On one of our rest stops I found this bottle of coke in the coolers,



We only had about 20 minutes to get into our rooms, get changed then back on the bus for the highlight of the day.  Dinner and a show at the world famous Moulin Rouge. Moulin in French means windmill and rouge means red.


This was a fantastic show we both enjoyed it very much.

One item from yesterday I forgot to mention. In Switzerland they have fondue.  Our tour guide said a few days ago that if you dropped an item of food into the fondue, you are supposed to kiss the person seated to the left of you.  We forgot about this when we had lunch yesterday with another couple from our group.


Tomorrow is the last day of our tour, we end in Paris while most others will travel back to London on Thursday.  It will be a very busy day tomorrow, with site seeing, a visit to the Palace at Versailles and then a farewell dinner for everyone and finally a nighttime cruise down the Siene River in Paris to see the city at night.
