In Reply to: What to do in Paris ? posted by MishaBlues on April 13, 2015 at 09:17:25:
Skip hi-fi unless you have done everything else : )
Paris is an amazing city. Museums, food, fashion. . . and my favorite. . . fair complected brunettes with blue eyes : )
The Lourve is too freaking big unless you have a lot of time or love art. You can get throught the Musee De Orsay in less than a day. Probably can get through the Rodin museum in less than a day (I'm guessing), but seeing you are from Philedelphia, you can 'dabble' at the Rodin Museum off of Ben Franklin Parkway.
Silly as it sounds, one of my favorite meals was a ham and cheese sandwhich from a Parisian chain. Probably because it was my first mean in Paris.
People watching - just pull up a chair at one of the seemingly thousands of bistros you'll pass by. Notice how most of the chairs are actually set up 'bleacher' style so you can people watch.
Notre Dame - nice, but lots of beggars. I preteneded not to speak english just to avoid the beggars.
I did not see any of the arrogance the French are famous for, however, I tried to speak a little French as needed. Seems as long as you make an effort, they are more accepting of you.
Watch out for 'light duty' criminals, i.e., pickpockets, purse snatchers, etc.
There is just too much to do. I grew up making frequent trips into NYC. . . Paris is a different thing, I liked it more. I would go back in a heartbeat.
Based on your post, it looks like you are travelling with someone. . . hopefull a spouse or romantic interest. . . Paris (as they say) is a most definitely a romantic city.
Enjoy! If you don't have a great time, there is no one to blame : )
