DAY EIGHT - MORE SHOPPING! MOULIN ROUGE, AND AMELIE'S CAFE
Got up about half nine and had cheese on toast and a cup of tea for breakfast. Then we headed out shopping on the Champs Elysees one last time. It was all good at first - I bought myself another nine dvds (Volver,The Sixth Sense,Benny and Joon,The Godfather,Belleville Rendevouz,Dirty Dancing,A Clockwork Orange,Interview With A Vampire and Rock Horror and Gina got Volver aswell because it was 10 for €50!)
All was good until we went into Zara and Gina's money got stolen - the THEIVING BASTARDS! €85 cash taken right out of her purse. They didn't take her cards so I suppose we can be thankful for that, but still. It's gutting that we got to the last day without anything like that and then BAM some bugger goes and spoils it all.
We went home after that and packed. Then I went for a nap and we got ready to go for something to eat at Giovanni's. Pizza's and cokes all round.
Then we went to the Moulin Rouge. We didn't go see the show because lets face it - rip off. But we did take lots of pretty pictures and I got to wear THE PURPLE DRESS! (Note to future self - you spent ages trying to slim down to fit into that dress,and it did eventually fit a couple of weeks before you went away. Hence the capitalisation and importance.) The Moulin Rouge was smaller than expected, but still very pretty. Then, the highlight of the day for me - WE WENT FOR HOT CHOCOLATE IN AMELIE'S CAFE! It was pretty cool and a got a photo of the gnome Amelie steals.
Finally, we went to see the Eiffel Tower sparkle one last time and it put on the best light show we'd seen all week - changing colours and generally just being very pretty.
Last day in Paris was a really enjoyable one.
Until Next Time ![]()
