Re: Paris - Where to stay?

We were lucky enough to visit Paris in September last year. We stayed in the Marais and found it perfect for us. You could walk everywhere and were only a 5 minute walk from the Seine where you could hop on a boat to take you to all the famous attractions. We rented a 2 bedroom huge apartment on the...

Wow!!!! How do you spell goosebumps? It did get me to wondering, please don't make fun of me but which side is the Left Bank and which is the Right. I figure that is a really silly question but my Forum friends will set me straight.

I knew I could count on all of you for ideas. I love all the links that you have provided. Keep them coming and more photos the better. I am a very bad bad bad camera carrier and if I see all of your shots, I can leave mine at home. It also gives a better feel of the city. Thanks for sharing yours.

Gricery Stire Humor
