Caught ferry to France (past the white cliffs of Dover) - purchased duty free ray bans. Oops!

Stopped at first service/rest stop. Ordered a villagois baguette from Pomme de Pain in French! Station played Angus and Julia - Australia represent!

Bus tour around Paris.

Escargot and French champagne near the river sin. Dinner.

Eiffel tower by night - lights up. Spectacular.

Chateau Versailles and gardens. Gold. Beautiful. Hedge maze. Shopping on champs. Woman getting towed! Jack up, wheel out of tight space, load front tyres onto truck. Woman comes out at this point. Pleads, gets in truck with driver.

Bridge of locks. Photos. Andrew swindled by a deaf woman.

Out with contiki people. Fun! Got to know everyone. Drug pact. Tall Canadian. Plenty of Aussies. One big family. New Zealander couple, ay. Aussie bartender gave all Aussies a double shot of butterscotch vodka - straight from the bottle.

Tour de France. Procession of giant ads. Men in underwear for detergent. Pole dancers (f) for fruit juice. Vittel water cannons.

Novelle eve cabaret - fun and free champagne (after free wine at dinner). Hilarious comedy acts. Lots of boobs and screaming girls. Main star looked like Cher. Past her prime sometime when mullets were fashionable.
