I just got back from Paris yesterday, and wanted to thank ALL of you who answered my many questions. You undoubtedly made the trip so much easier than it would have been without your useful info. ^

Paris was lovely. The weather was pretty bad (cold and rainy) but we didn't let that stop us from enjoying it. This trip has sparked such a strong desire within me to travel more often. I hope to see the south of france and Italy by next year.

The only "negative" about Paris was the food for me. At first, I kept making the wrong choices but towards the end, I found that if I stuck with simple fare (spaghetti, croque monsieur, KFC/McDonalds) I was OK. And I couldn't use my AT&T card from any payphone in Paris so I ended up buying 2 cards over there. That was a bummer. But I guess I can use it eventually.

Thanks a million!
