It was a luxury to explore Paris alone. I took the metro to museums and sites, meandered along small streets, looked in tiny boutiques and tried to speak French.
I took a European family vacation this summer. I learned a few things.
The gardens and squares were filled with people talking to friends, reading a book or eating lunch. As busy as Parisians are, they also make time to relax and recharge.
Paris macarons are delicate, yet bursting with flavor, each bite is heavenly. After one bite we vowed to eat as many as possible.
A visit to Versailles, France is a must-do day trip from Paris, but as we would soon find out, it’s trickier than it seems.
The Marais location couldn’t have been better; we were near 2 metro stations, several bus lines and a few blocks walk to the Seine river.
