18th District - Pigalle

Haha - Pigalle is the sex district of Paris. Garish neon lights all up and down the street for the "Sexodrome" and multiple shops and cabarets, and of course the Moulin Rouge (which is suprisingly tiny)..... was more funny, and a little sad, during the day. Really does get mentioned all the time in tourist books, etc. A little bigger then i expected, about 4 full blocks on both sides of the street, funny when you turn the corner off and it's just little normal shops - a lot of people just going around their everyday business here too.

Went back on this Saturday evening, just for kicks - even more lights, but the wares were not as conspicously on display as we thought they might be - only caught 4 streetwalkers, possibly more (we weren't looking for groups with guys at first) um... yeah. kinda funny. plus i like this picture - shrug. Posted by Picasa
