Time to bid goodbye to the MS AmaLegro Up early to bid our riverboat & crew goodbye … set off on a panoramic tour of Paris’ most famous sights … the finale being a walking tour of Musee d’Orsay to enjoy art pieces of the masters … priceless !! All the staff were terrific … picture of our dinning room waiters Checked into the Pullman Hotel … on the Left Bank close to the Luxembourg Gardens … very contemporary! Quickly off to our second MAC concert with Brooks and a brilliant young violinist (23), Benjamin Baker … born in New Zealand … his first concert at 12 for the Mozart Festival before 1,000 … now continues international performances. The program this afternoon included solos by both artists plus duets. Works included were by Liszt, Paganini, Elgar, Massenet, and Kriesler. This was a show to remember. Finally, no visit to Paris would be complete without seeing a cabaret performance … the Paradis Latin cabaret provided the wine, champagne, dinner, comedy, acrobatics, and dancing girls (CanCan) … sorry, photos not allowed !!! Near midnight we found our way back to our hotel … exhausted and feeling the effects of a great day.
