So this is funny that you took this Rouge for a August theme month, which is not Red ;-) It would have been too easy ! Rouge is a color I love anyway. Exit the Moulin, the only Rouge is enough, as Sab already pointed it out.

Awwwwwwwwwwww ;-)<br /><br />@Trishia "but must confess, when I visited the Moulin Rouge area, it was my only disappointment:)". Yes, I can understand, even though they really made an effort lately. The mill could use a little paint job though, for sure...<br /><br />@Christie " I wonder why they chose a windmill as their insignia? Was it because it is easy to identify?"<br />Well, there were plenty of mills in Montmartre before. One of them is said to have turned red after it was all covered with the blood of its owners (4 brothers) when the Russian army attacked them in March 1814. But I'm not really sure this is a true story ;-)Ludehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288299480922682837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-53948970435101625562011-08-01T20:14:31.584+02:002011-08-01T20:14:31.584+02:00Typically Parisian, peut-etre, but not a typical v...Typically Parisian, peut-etre, but not a typical view!

I don't think it's because I'm a prude American -- because I'm not. But the buildings, the windmill -- it was all quite a letdown. But when I get to Paris, I'd visit there again just to try to get a photo like yours here:)Trishiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14269792258443549777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-55356645058830358472011-08-01T14:59:03.672+02:002011-08-01T14:59:03.672+02:00great take!!great take!!Tanya Breesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01949602989774270159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-61768629298320207812011-08-01T10:37:05.062+02:002011-08-01T10:37:05.062+02:00I like the idea of taking a classic Paris place (o...I like the idea of taking a classic Paris place (or any place) and not needing to include all the name, but just getting the repetition of one aspect (the colour) echoed by another (the word) and forgetting the 'Moulin' bit altogether!
