Having been here in recent years, it’s nice not having the pressure of visiting the “must see” attractions.
We just roamed the city, went into some shops including a Toyota dealership to look at some new models. Best of all, we could just relax, eat, drink, absorb the atmosphere and enjoy the company of friends.
If only we had nice weather. It was cloudy and drizzly. But to make up for this, August is the month when many Parisians take holidays, so this was uncrowded by local standards (it didn’t seem it to us). And best of all, all the parking we needed during our short stay was FREE, FOC! Oui oui GRATUITE!
