Moulin Rouge - a highlight!

In the early evening, we took the light rail down to the Haymarket/China Town area.
We had an early dinner at a Thai restaurant called Phat Thai - we couldn't get a booking but I 'ninfa'd' when we got there and they let us in. The food was magnificent and the Capitol Theatre was directly across the road. We had paid quite a bit for our Classical Capitol package so besides the great tickets we got a glass of Veuve Cliquot champagne, a chocolate, program, and salted caramel choc top icecreams - all delicious. However, it was the musical which was ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING. Great music, singing, dancing, acting and everything else e.g. the sets, the theatre and costumes.
