Thank you, Colleen & Antoine! Paris has been my dream forever, but as a poor bookseller in San Francisco, it was never going to happen. Guess what? I won a trip to Paris in a sweepstakes, and I fly two months from today! I am devouring your wonderful videos, and this may be my favorite yet. We'll be staying in the Latin Quarter and Marais/Bastille, so most of these places will be walking distance. I hope to hit them all! I've got two weeks in France, with most in Paris, and a side trip to see friends in Brittany in the middle. So, if you've been thinking about a Brittany video, I encourage you to bring it out soon! 😁. Meanwhile, I am taking careful notes on all sides of your recommendations. Merci!!

You are both very kind. Truthfully, I think it was the best two weeks of my life! I am 55, and I have been dreaming of Paris forever. But it turns out that my imagination was not up for the task. It could not picture how truly beautiful Paris is! Everywhere I looked, I was entranced! And with two weeks in France, I really had time to see all the highlights, as well as days for just wandering. I don't know that I will ever have the good fortune to return, but I feel so grateful for this trip. I will be thinking back on it forever. Thanks for asking, and happy New Year!

Especially if you end up sharing a table with a delightful elder Parisian lady who wants to chat. Laduree on the Champs is, well, on the Champs. With regard to Angelina, I was very lucky. I was at Versailles on a non-busy day (one school tour and a few other small groups - amazing) and headed into Angelina to avoid said school group for a bit. I was one fo five people, and I think I lucked out in that because the service and food/drink were very good.

My trouble is that I look forward to breakfast of a croissant, fresh orange juice, and hot chocolate. So I was incredibly excited to be able to try your recommendations for breakfast, since I have been very disappointed with the hot chocolate I have found for breakfast in Paris (it seems to be a thinner, creamier style rather than my preference for thick and dark which I find in many other places in France, as well as at your recommended cafés). Unfortunately, I discovered that your recommendations opened a bit later in the day. So… any recommendations for hot chocolate for breakfast in some of the major tourist arrondissements? (For my part, that would be the 5th (or nearby in the 6th).
