Paris! October! Woot!

Elaine and I are off to Paris in October for 10 days. She's got a friend who's tyin' the knot over there, and the two of us have decided to take some much-earned PTO and run around the city. I've never been to France before, so this is quite a treat for me - and it's all pleasure, no business. The work laptop stays in Redmond.

I bought the airline tickets today. And I feel all tingly!

Anyone got suggestions of things to do and see? (And no, I'm not going to Disneyland Paris...)

Gavin,

You have to go to Sacre Coeur. It was one of the most breathtaking things I have ever experienced, not to mention a goregous view. On the back side of that hill there is a fondue restaurant called 'Le refuge des fondus' that serves wine in big glass baby bottles, complete with rubber nipples. An experience not to be missed if it's still there (this was in 98).

Hope all is well. Have a GREAT time!

The catacombs are pretty cool and not completely on the typical tourist's map.
