Anyway, whilst in Paris, Chicken and I wanted to try to find the cafe - in which Amélie works in the film - the Deux Moulin, which is located in Monmartre. So, we headed off there on Saturday evening. |

We were up early to get to the station for our train to London Waterloo (and to meet Noreen, Mum’s cousin) to catch our Euro Star train. Yes, it was as confusing as it sounds! We were pleasantly surprised to find it was very quick and easy to get through the customs and bag scans (although it is kind of weird to have your bags your whole journey, as we are so used to air travel, where you lose the bags after check in!) and had time to enjoy a coffee before we boarded. The journey seemed pretty quick and smooth in general - the tunnel itself was just 20 minutes of the journey, and before we knew it we were embarking at Gard du Nord in Paris. |

As you will know if you read this blog often, or, indeed, know Mr Chicken or myself, “our” film is ‘Le Fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain’ - we first watched it on a rainy Sunday afternoon soon after we started going out and it just hit the right mood for us! Well, two geeky people finding love, strikes a cord I suppose!
On Wednesday Mum arrived for our journey the next day to the wonderful city - and capital of France- of Paris!
