Paris in February

[GramChop]

i remember you speaking so highly of them last year, amy. what a testimony to their parenting! way to go, petesam!

Thanks for the kind words about parenting! We feel it's our most important job right now.

Oh, Rue Mouffetard hs some very cute shops. There is a wonderful hat store and also a toy store.

Well if you want to be out doors, start at Arc De Triomphe and walk east on Champs Elysées to the Louvre. Spend some time in the museum and then head east on the Rue de Rivoli to Rue de rArbre Sec and hang a left and stop in at O Chateau for a little wine tasting. And you will not be to far from Notre Dame.

The trick is to make it to the museum without spending 5 hours and $1000 Eu shopping on the way.

Thank you, everyone, for the great ideas. I may PM some of you for details.

Fins, we are already set for a wine tasting at O Chateau on the evening of 2/19. I suspect we'll spend that day in the Louvre. Great minds think alike!

Never fear, no 1000 euro shopping sprees along the Champs Elysees for me.

we are off to Paris staying at L'Hotel at the end of the month and have made reservations for lunch and/or dinner at
Taillevent, Lasserre, L'Arpege, Le Cinc and plan to do the Paris bistro thing for lunch and dinner on the left bank

Have a great trip! Do give us a report on the food and the bistros you decide on. If you can't tell, I have a travel deficit right now!

Thank you, Missy.

Henry, your list is impressive. We have no set plans. I am hopeful that a day or two is enough to make reservations as we go.
