It was a lot of fun.
We made it out to Mont St Michel and stayed the night there. On the way back to paris we went through Normandy and stopped and saw the Bayeaux Tapestry. That thing was so cool. Not sure why but it was one of the highlights of the trip for me. But I have been to Paris a few times before, so maybe because it was something new, but even my kids really liked it and said it was one of the coolest things they saw.
The catacombs were pretty cool too. That was new this trip as well.

Thanks for bumping this thread. It’s by far the best thread on this board!!

We were there for about a week and loved the location - just across the Seine from Notre Dame. Easy access to Metro. The apartment was awesome; much better than a hotel. Being able to cook when we wanted was convenient. Only problem was my kids getting stuck in the elevator for an hour or so.

I'm not gonna read the thread to see --probably others have suggested visiting Pere Lachaise cemetery -- this is probably my favorite thing we have ever done in Paris -- hired a guide that took us around to all the cool stuff. We started at the top of the hill like they describe here near the tomb of Oscar Wilde, then walked down and found the graves of Jim Morrison, Frederic Chopin, Gertrude Stein, Moliere. Very fun and somewhat non-touristy thing to do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A...haise_CemeteryLast edited by CardiacCoug; 03-06-2018, 07:00 PM.

Holy crap, when did this happen?
Now I feel kind of bad about making all those podcast and accounting jokes."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."
