Ah! Paris
Frank Renton's musical tour of Paris in April takes in the Champs Elysees plus a metro trip to the opera house where he encounters a Phantom in the Night and a Merry Widow.
One of the best times to see Paris is in April, possibly in the evening, possibly strolling along the Champs Elysees, perhaps a visit to the Opera House where you might encounter a Phantom in the Night and A Merry Widow, but you might find the Metro a bit crowded. If you can't do any of this tonight then join Frank Renton who takes a whistle stop musical tour of 'The City of Light'.
