SPOTLIGHT ON
WHAT TO DO
CHÂTEAU D’AUVERS
The show 'Voyage au temps des Impressionnistes' (A journey
through the Impressionist era) plunges visitors to the château
into the atmosphere of Haussmannian Paris and its cabarets.
It offers an introduction to absinthe, the fashions of the late
1880s, train travel and the famous Saint-Lazare station,
journeys to the coast, painters and their floating studios.
www.chateau-auvers.fr
FONDATION LOUIS VUITTON
A new artistic and cultural venue in the west of Paris, the
Louis Vuitton Fondation presents a collection of contemporary
art, organises temporary exhibitions and also other artistic
events. Among its priorities is a mission to provide education,
particularly for young visitors, through informative activities.
The romantic city of Paris is a cultural melting pot of fashion, food, art,
architecture and French joie de vivre. With a capacity to surprise at every
turn, it’s a place you simply must visit at least once. As Ernest Hemingway
once said; London is a riddle. Paris is an explanation.
www.fondationlouisvuitton.fr/en
MUSÉE PICASSO PARIS
In the heart of the Marais district, the Hotel Salé has housed the
Musée national Picasso since 1985. The museum has recently
been totally redesigned and restored, with two extra floors
offering a total of 17 exhibition rooms. Its unique collection
boasts 5,000 of the painter’s pieces and much of his private
collection, covering his entire career, from 1895 to 1972.
It's time to discover the real Paris...
Paris is known as The City of Light ('La Ville Lumière') both because of its leading role
during the Age of Enlightenment, and more literally because Paris was one of the first
European cities to adopt gas street lighting.
The city of Paris is renowned among foreign tourists due to
its unrivalled heritage in terms of culture, architecture and
leisure activities. But relatively few visitors venture into
the wider realms of the Paris Region, which has wonderful
offerings for tourists. New events and sites to visit are
also being added each year – for example in 2014 exciting
exhibitions at the Musée Picasso, special events at the Parc
Zoologique and lets not forget the Louis Vuitton Foundation,
which is becoming an increasingly popular attraction for
overseas visitors. In 2015 the Philharmonie de Paris will
also be making several performances locally.
Many sites across the capital’s wider region contribute to
the destination's global reputation, including three UNESCO
World Heritage sites. To the south, there is Château de
Fontainebleau and its 130-hectare park and gardens, the
only royal and imperial palace to have been lived in over
seven centuries. A few kilometres away, the Château de
Vaux le Vicomte – the largest private palace in France – is
a treasure that inspired the creation of another. Whereas, to
the west of Paris, the estate of Versailles, beloved by Louis
XIV is as spectacular as royal residences come.

ONE NATION PARIS
With its chic atmosphere, One Nation Paris is affirming a
high-end positioning centred around the French experience:
24,000m² dedicated to luxury and fashion with 112 boutiques
presenting a selection of premium brands. Shuttles to and
from Paris and Versailles are included in tourist packages.
Across the entire region of Paris the capital has made a name
for itself as a key location for fashion and luxury shopping.
Yet there are many suburbs of Paris that are equally famous
for their superb way of life and cultural delights. We’d
recommend that you take a map, put one foot in front of the
other and explore them for yourself.
www.onenation.fr
There is plenty to explore and
find amongst the cities streets and
further afield.
We like:
•
A vibrant and romantic atmosphere.
In terms of hotels, there are always new places to stay and,
as for cuisine, the city is full of excellent restaurants and
outstanding food to add to your experience.
•
The amazing and varied architecture.
•
The chance to explore and find hidden gems
round every corner.
And don't forget that around Paris an extensive range of
festivals, cultural events, sports spectaculars and historical
shows remain on offer throughout the year.
•
An endless choice of high quality, food and drink.
•
Brilliant museums to make the mind boggle.

Hello and welcome to our Spring/Summer edition of Traversée.
I’m delighted that we’ve chosen to focus on Paris in this edition.

MOONSHINER
Behind a telephone box, underneath a kebab shop or on the other
side of a fridge, ‘speakeasy’ bars are inspired by the clandestine
drinking spots of prohibition-era America. To enter Moonshiner, you
first have to make your way through the restaurant Pizza Da Vito,
then push your way through the metal door of the walk-in fridge...
5, rue Sedaine, 75011
MUSÉE ZADKINE
This is one of the most intimate museums in Paris, a rare, peaceful
corner where you can take a good dose of modern art. The former
studio of Russian-born Cubist sculptor Ossip Zadkine has always had
a particular charm and a renovation and re-opening in autumn 2012
has cemented and invigorated this success. You can even find a good
cup of tea in the reception area…

A new vision of love. A reinterpretation of the

through the most fascinating enigma of all
times, the black diamond. A perfect match with
the Lancôme range. La Nuit Trésor, is a black
rose designed like a rough diamond over a wild
vanilla layer. A sexy and aphrodisiac fragrance;
sensual, elegant and feminine.
LA PETITE CEINTURE
This walk is one of Paris’s least well-guarded secrets, in every sense.
Essentially a disused railway that loops around the city like a ‘little
belt’, the route has lain derelict since the last train rattled along its
tracks last decade. Many choose to go it alone with a torch but three
short stretches in the 12th, 15th and 16th arrondissements have
actually been opened to the public...

JARDIN ALPIN
Nestling at the heart of the left bank’s Jardin des Plantes is this lush
tribute to mountain flora. Around two thousand different species are
arranged according to continent of provenance, surviving thanks to
the microclimate created by the surrounding trees and the shallow
valley in which the garden is situated. The Jardin Alpin isn’t big but
it compensates with its atmosphere of dense verdant calm. One to
head to with a book and a long afternoon ahead of you…

LA CANTINE RUSSE
Next to the Seine is a rather sober building that houses the grandlynamed The Conservatoire Russe de Paris Serge Rachmaninoff . This
august establishment, opposite the Eiffel Tower, was founded in
1923 and continues to train budding musicians. But when the school
closes up for the day, a more intriguing and surreal venue, La Cantine
Russe, opens up in the basement...

WE
LOVE
WINE
We’d all love to know
more about buying wine,
but most of us, if we're
honest, buy by price or
by what the label looks
like. There's nothing
wrong with that but we
have a few tips and an
interesting quiz that will
help you improve your
knowledge and impress
your friends.
BE A PRO WITH WHAT YOU KNOW...
Find two or three types of wine you like and stick with them.
Read up on their characteristics: for example, a Cabernet’s going to be
fruity, with big berry flavours, whereas a decent Chenin will be soft and
buttery. That way you’ll have something relevant to say about them.
NEVER PLAY WINE LIST ROULETTE...
Are you a 'second cheapest on the list' buyer? Restaurants bank on
the fact that no one wants to be seen as a tightwad by ordering the
cheapest. But the second cheapest? That says, “I’m on a budget but
I’m not a skinflint,” right? Trouble is, it’s where the restaurant hides
its biggest margin.
BE NOSEY...
When someone serves you a glass of wine, don’t just knock it back.
Part of the beauty of a good wine is the aromas, which also tell you
a lot about what you’re about to taste. Tilt the glass slightly and give
it a swirl (holding by the stem of the glass). This gets air in and helps
release the scents. Then take a good deep sniff, then think about what
you can smell. What comes to mind? Fruit? Spice? Chocolate? All good.
Trust your nose.
CORKING MYTHS...
If you don’t like a particular wine, it doesn’t mean it’s corked. The term
“corked” actually means that the wine has come into contact with a
cork that’s contaminated with TCA: that’s 2,4,6-Trichloroanisole to you.
Insisting that a wine’s corked to a sommelier just because you don’t
like the taste of it will not make you popular.
MIND YOUR LANGUAGE...
The world of wine is full of prosaic terms, and if you’re not sure
when to use them, don’t. Don’t go saying things like, “ooh, wonderfully
complex” if all you can taste is a big dollop of blackberries or a smash
of citrus. A wine doesn’t have to be complicated to be enjoyable.
KEEP IT FRESH...
You’ve had a glass of white with your starter, and the table’s moving
on to red to go with the main course. Don’t say, “stick it in here,” and
offer up the same glass. Always, always get a clean fresh glass for each
wine you drink. And know your white wine glass (smaller) from your
red glass (larger), too. The red needs more room to be swirled, letting
all that air in as mentioned above.
Above all, drink what you like. If you like it, it's good.
Happy tasting.

WHISKY
ABERLOUR - 12Y SHERRY CASK
1ltr, 40% ABV
JURA - SUPERSTITION
1ltr, 40% ABV
A malt with tremendous depth and power, this single malt has been matured
for 12 years in new Spanish Oloroso sherry casks. This results in a unique style
of Aberlour where the distillery character is complemented by the effect of
highly active ‘new’ wood. A round character that displays perfectly balanced
notes of fruits and spices.
Jura is an island wrapped in superstition: never cut peat before May and
always build haystacks in a clockwise direction. Perhaps it’s the one
regarding the Ankh cross that demands greatest attention. This ancient
Egyptian symbol is rumoured to bring good fortune - just so long as you pour
the whisky in the correct manner. Hold the bottle with the Ankh cross in the
centre of your palm, they say, and good fortune will surely follow.

THE BLACK GROUSE
1ltr, 40% ABV
THE SNOW GROUSE
1ltr, 40% ABV
The Famous Grouse is testimony to the
unsurpassed blending skills of Matthew Gloag
& Son, a family business founded in 1800. The
secret is in the way they marry the finest malt
whiskies, like The Macallan and Highland Park,
with exceptional grain whiskies for an unusually
long period in fully seasoned oak casks. Raised in
the Highlands - Scotland´s favourite whisky.
This was born from the insight that many current
scotch drinkers are looking for blends with a
richer, peatier taste profile, dark, russet, golden.
It contains some of the world’s finest whiskies.
More ex-sherry oak casks are used giving a
smoother, more rounded taste.
For a whisky to bear the name of The Snow
Grouse it has to be as unique as the bird itself,
and made history by being the first Scotch whisky
created to be served straight from the freezer. It
is matured in oak casks before being gently chill
filtered and uses selected 100% older mature
grain whiskies, producing an elegant soft, delicate
and sweet whisky.

DISCOVER WITH DFDS
Trying something new isn’t always top of our list of things to
do, as we often prefer the comfort of familiarity. It’s clear for
example, that DFDS’ customers love fish & chips, as we served a
whopping 100,000 portions last year. And why not, they are as
iconic as the White Cliffs of Dover and tasty too, but how about
trying something different?
The DFDS brand is founded on the idea of bringing you new
experiences and taking you to interesting places. So together
with our onboard catering team, we’ve been working on a range
of special dishes for our restaurant, designed to give you that
feeling that only travel can deliver.
WITH DFDS
All corners of the world have been covered from Indian curries
to Italian specialities and we’ll be changing them often too.
Many of our passengers travel with us on a regular basis so
we’re aiming to surprise you with something different each time
you travel with us.
Just keep an eye out for the ‘DISCOVER WITH DFDS’ logo when
you join us in the restaurant and we’ll see if we can tempt you…
FANCY A CUPPA JOE'S?
As World War One began, President Woodrow
Wilson appointed Josphus Daniels as Secretary of
the US Navy. The story goes that Josephus was
keen to instill discipline and quickly made all ships
alcohol free, meaning that the strongest drink
onboard was a cup of coffee. And this soon became
known as a Cuppa Joe.
So if you fancy a really great cup of coffee – or
something stronger; we’re not in the Navy now you
know – just join us for a Cuppa Joe in the Café Bar
on our Dover to Dunkirk route.

MOTORING OFF TO FRANCE...
People keep telling me that it’s important to be legal when
driving in France. But what exactly does that mean in 2015?
To find out more, I set off across the Channel with the kids in
tow… and our latest DFDS European Motoring kit.
Sekonda gents digital chronograph watch. Round
black plastic case with blue top ring. Grey dial.
Day, date, month. 1/100 second chronograph,
countdown timer, 5 alarms, backlight, dual time.
Black plastic strap. Water resistant to 100 metres.
Guaranteed for 2 years.
Before leaving there are a few things to prepare. Our
UK headlights cause dazzle on the continent and this
apparently makes the French Gendarmes very unhappy!
So, the first job is for the kids to fit the surprisingly simple
Headlamp Adaptors onto the front of Vanessa VW – yes,
my car has a name. There is also a handy Universal Bulb
Kit included as you’ll be in for a spot fine if your lights
don’t work.
A Magnetic GB plate is then quickly applied, so that
everyone knows we’re not local and makes allowances for
my driving on the ‘wrong’ side of the road. As if
I would?
To make sure we’re all safe in the event of a breakdown
– and I don’t mean the sort of breakdown that being with
two children in a confined space can set off – the kit also
contains a Hi-Vis Vest and a Warning Triangle. If you set it
at least 50 metres behind the car, it helps to give plenty of
advance warning to approaching motorists.
The main surprise however is that legally I need to carry at
least one new Breathalyser in France. I’m told that you can
be fined just for not having one of these in your car so there
are two in the kit just to make sure you still have one in the
event of you checking your lunchtime consumption – not
that I managed any on this trip. And this is probably a good
idea if you’re enjoying that famous French hospitality as the
drink and drive limit is 40% lower than the UK.
Apart from the usual back-seat squabbles, you’ll be pleased
to know that our trip went off without incident; exactly the
way I like it. Confident that we weren’t going to be in trouble
if stopped, we returned home with Vanessa VW jam-packed
with enough cheese and wine to last the summer.
If you haven’t sorted your car yet, don’t worry; the kit is now
available in our onboard shop.
* Complete Motoring Kit £39.50. £48.70 when components are purchased individually.

75TH ANNIVERSARY OF
OPERATION DYNAMO
As we merrily travel across the English Channel, from Dover to
Dunkerque and back again, it’s worth taking some time out to
remember the sacrifice and bravery that took place in Dunkerque
some 75 years ago.
EVENTS LEADING UP
TO THE EVACUATION
On the 10th May 1940, German army group ‘B’
invaded Holland, Luxembourg and Belgium. In
response, three allied armies were committed
to the river Dyle to counter-attack. At the same
time, German army group ‘A’ burst through the
Ardennes and advanced very quickly towards
the French coast and the English Channel.
By taking Boulogne-sur-Mer and Calais,
the Germans succeeded in surrounding the
allied troops in the so-called ‘sickle cut’
movement of forces. Holland capitulated on
the 15th May, and Belgium on the 28th.
Facing an enemy which was better equipped and
which outnumbered the allied troops, retreat
was the only option for the French armies and
the British Expeditionary Force, which had been
stationed on the continent since the beginning
of the ‘Phoney War’ in September 1939.
15,000 French and British troops
defended a narrow perimeter to prevent
the Germans from taking Dunkerque.
Thanks to the sacrifices of these soldiers, a
rag-tag fleet of around 1,400 mainly British,
but also French, Belgian and Dutch ships,
succeeded in rescuing more than 338,000 soldiers
from the beaches and the eastern mole.
On the 4th June, at dawn, the last ship left Dunkerque
and the Germans entered the city that was in ruins.
The success of the biggest evacuation in military
history, a ‘Disaster turned into a triumph’, giving
these soldiers the opportunity to fight again later in
the war, gave a great boost to British morale, and is
now seen as a major turning point of World War II.
Heading to Paris?
Make sure you have enough Euros
Holidaymakers heading to tourist hotspots in Paris can benefit by researching the costs of various attractions before
they arrive. Knowing the average cost for key attractions can avoid you being caught short whilst you are away. Also,
you should try to avoid paying for smaller items by credit or debit card as this can result in costly transaction fees.
Below we have provided a guide on the cost of Paris’ top attractions.
Attraction Description:
‘Operation Dynamo’ was a huge evacuation that took place
between 27 May and 4 June 1940 on the beaches of Dunkerque in
France. Huge numbers of British, French and Belgium troops were
surrounded and trapped at Dunkerque by better-equipped and faster
moving German forces during the Second World War.
