What a wonderful welcome to Paris! Our apartment was beautiful, spotless, and in an excellent location, very close to shops, restaurants, and historic landmarks. People-watching is at its best here, for Notre Dame is a popular tourist destination. At night, the daytime crowds go elsewhere, and you're left with awe-inspiring beauty at every turn in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. Our host was particularly accommodating. Thank you, Alain Thierry, for making us feel so at home.
