Good to hear about your travels. The photo's, especially of the stained glass at Notre Dame, are excellent. Jane and I envy you your trip to Paris. She went many years ago but we've never gone together. Quite a change from CR, huh! Keep us on the loop.

Hotel
Hi Marie thank you for your question - we stayed here http://www.citadines.com/en/france/paris/les_halles.html it was nice - less amenities than a regular hotel - but location was great - You can probably find a better deal - but it worked well for us ~ if you go I hope you have as an amazing time as I did.
