Ruby Tuesday : From Pigalle ...

to your computer screen ... I wanted to share with you the most famous windmill of them all. It's red, it's wicked and it's totally decadent. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you ... the Moulin Rouge.


Not the best pictures, I am afraid, but I took them while on the tourist train that takes you on a tour of Montmartre and Pigalle. The Moulin Rouge needs no introduction, of course. I thought it would make a great subject for today's Ruby Tuesday. I just wish that the days would slow down a bit and give me a chance to make some other posts before Ruby Tuesday is with us again. I really need to get myself organised.
For more Ruby Tuesday go here.

    The ruby windmill is a classic. I have not been to Paris, but my wife and daughter have, and with pictures of this landmark. The classic windmill is a nice working art within the classic Paris...

    Thanks for the memories. I was 16 when I saw MR for the first time. This year my daughter had her hen night and we had a MR theme. Two great memories!
