Ted, Funny you should ask. I covered most of Paris in our month there. The
only place we missed was the immediate area around the Arc, as to us it was
the least appealing and there is so much to see that even a year would not
be enough. I left Northern Ca with a new set of tennis shoes and had holes
in same a month later from walking Paris.
