will post a trip report ...after i finally do one about our christmas STJ trip (sorry chicagoans--i am a Total SLacker Mom)

but in the interim anyone have some good Paris ideas??? we are staying at a new B&B in the 14th (montrouge--a bit out of city center, but looked nice)

this is a girls trip (my daughter, my sister, and me) so apparently there will be shopping.....

... not been there for 12 years, and am guessing that you have been before. Can offer the usual, most common suggestions; no new stuff or real insight, but I smile to think of being there. Will look forward to the trip reports!
Hope you ladies have a wonderful, wonderful time.
Avenue des Champs-Elysees and Galeries Lafayette at least.

My can't miss museum is the Musée d'Orsay

http://www.musee-orsay.fr/en/home.html

And the Musée de l'Orangerie re-opened just a year or two ago - I really want to make it back to Paris to see this.

Thanks Anthony--we will be too late for the gallerie fashion show (too bad since my daughter would have LOVED that) but Musee de'Lorangerie looks fabulous--
D'orsay is my favorite too.

Oh, I'm so envious!! Bon Voyage if you check this before you go. I've never been there in person but armchair traveled many times. Have a wonderful time and can't wait for the report.

I LOVED Paris. Picnicking under the Eiffel Tower, Musee D-Orsay, Sacre Coeur- loved it all!
