    Yay, Tim Traveller cameo!! Your own Paris Street diorama was fantastic, and I loved the rat with the chefs hat! I've never been to Montparnasse Tower, so now I have to make the trip, if only for the Zero Euro notes!

    I’d love to see Chris’s interactions with customs agents when they say “anything to declare?”
    Also, nice little detail of blurring the Eiffel Tower at 7:05 because of a weird legal technicality that prevents people from publishing images of the Eiffel Tower at night. Who knew that light itself can be copyrightable.
    (The lamps affixed to the Eiffel Tower are protected by a copyright of visual likeness and any image where they are visible, I.e. at night, cannot be published without permission.)

    8:58 "FIELD NOTES:
    A massive thanks to Danielle & The Tim Traveller for their help filming and carrying everything!
    I've wanted to do the infinite-suitcase gag ever since I started UA-cam! In reality, I took 3 suitcases and a backpack full of LEGO…
    The Metro railings of my Parisian street diorama are broken ~ I designed it at home and accidentally left a few pieces behind, one of the many challenges of travelling with LEGO
    Building the train on the Eurostar was super awkward. We were surrounded by really serious business people working on their laptops and I was just there loudly clicking LEGO together. The train guard was delighted however, I think I made his day.
    I should clarify - I really loved the Montparnasse Tower! It was quiet, cheap, had great views and multiple Zero Euro machines. The Eiffel Tower was incredibly crowded and expensive
    I only like filming in perfect blue-sky weather. I had to delay this video multiple times as Paris was too cloudy. It was all booked last minute once the forecast cleared up. It genuinely makes a huge difference to the quality of the footage and feel of the video"

    Chris!!! You absolutely outdid yourself! Loved everything about this video. Please please please submit your Paris diorama to Lego Ideas. It is sooo perfect! Perfectly detailed and humorous without being too overcomplicated and the sewers and catacombs + the mechanisms built were just genius! With your following I'm sure we could all vote for this to become a real lego set! Loved the field notes. Montparnasse IS really ugly-lol- but you have now motivated me to go up and see the view :) Can't wait for the next episode of your travel series!

    I have a suggestion. Put your title to “Building Places with LEGO - Paris” as a series.

    Chris, this is the most wholesome channel and a real happy place at the UA-cams. ❤- Oh, and thank you to Danielle and The Tim Traveller for their help from me also. Love the Tim Traveller channel.
