Take lots of Euros.

Don't take a window seat in any drinking or eating establishment unless you wish to pay for the great privilege!!

Enjoy!

Suggestion: explore Paris by bike. I did it last time I was there (with friends) and I thought; pffff, that will be boring... but actually, it was very cool. You are crossing Paris in no time and you can have lunch underneath the Eiffeltower.

Have fun! [Smile]

There are organizations which take you all through Paris. You can choose half a day or 1 day. You can rent the bikes. I forgot about the rates, I think it was about 10 or 15 euros but I am not sure anymore.
I did this trip with an organization called Paris en vélo. It was a friendly guy from New Zealand who had fallen in love with a French girl, the relationship did not last... but he still stayed in Paris and started taking tourists through Paris. [Smile]

Spain's paella is the most famous dish of the country's varied cuisine,more specifically from the Levantine coastal region pertaining to Valencia. [Cool]

The good thing about Flunch is that you eat healthy home made food instead of junk, for the same price if not cheaper..they've got wine and rich dessert like mousse au chocolat and peche melba..espresso coffee..all for a low cost,better than any unhealthy junk food outlet..

Sarkozy didn't forbid shisha [Smile] It's just that now the law changed, like in several other countries, you aren't allowed to smoke inside a restaurant or a cafe, and yes, many shisha places had to close, but I think there's a special law that may be make for them, I'm not sure but I can search for you if you want!
Enjoy your Parisian trip [Smile]

Take the funicular up to the Sacre Coeur and watch the street shows.

Walk along the Tulleries.

Take the metro to Pere La Chaise Cemetery and see the tomb of Champolion the guy who decyphered the Rosetta Stone.

Visit the Les Invalides.

Sacre Coeur is a MUST SEE, I agree.

Eiffel Tower, go up it [Big Grin]

The Omm Kalthoum coffee shop is in Les Gobelins up a small street beginning with 'V' but can I find it on a damned map? [Mad] If you do happen across it say Hi to Samir for me, the Samir with the curly hair [Big Grin] Although he wont know me as Ayisha [Frown]

all I remember there was an outdoor market street, you go up that and off to your left up this little street and its on your right [Frown]

There was Samir the owner, Muslim. Samir the guy I mentioned who is mid 30s I think and Christian, cant remember anymore as staff changed a lot and I am going back 6 years. It had pics of Omm Kalthoum everywhere and there was a downstairs to it too. Lots of shisha and they did the best foul I have ever had. [Big Grin]

What I enjoy most about Paris are probably all the little streets with cafes (eg around Boulevard Saint Michel). Generally, I just like discovering new places at random. I look at a guide or map and, "Oh, I must check this place!" I take the metro and there I am! [Big Grin]
And Paris is a must-be for me each year!
