just kidding.. my 'dream' vacation is a month in Paris, trying a different hotel every 3 days or so. My husband is, like, 'can you pick ONE and stick to it?'... that's like having to choose one pastry and never sampling all the others. He's nuts.

Hello, Finally I am settled enough to write. So far I am not having much wifi luck. Am at internet cafe today;

tod you tell me date and time. Lets just do L'Insulair to keep it easy if this will work for you.

Weather is incredible today. Went to
grand magazins today. I am still in awe over and over at the beauty and variety of Paris.

Having great time. All is good with M, as if I never left.

Hey ggnga, glad to see you made it back to Paris and that all is as you'd hoped.

Have a great GTG with Tod at L'Insulaire - wish I could join you all (sigh!).

My sister and I will be be there in September (24th-30th), staying in the 4th just a few blocks off of rue de Rivoli. Will try to set up a GTG with other Fodorites, and hope you'll still be there to join us.

Please keep us up to date on what you're doing - I look forward to your posts!

Gina

ggnga - L'Insulaire sounds great.
We are open to any night but I suggest the 17th or 18th May.
Will you confirm after you make the reservation on this post?

Hey Gina, I wish you were with us too!

We'll be there too, leaving Paris on the 18th. Is the GTG definitely scheduled for the 17th at L'Insulaire?
That'll be our last of 10 nights in Paris and it would be fun to meet some other Fodorites.

ggnga - Saturday -17th, time: 20.30, L'Insulaire, Rue Gregoire de Tours (between Rue de Buci & Blvd.Saint Germain) - It's a date! Better book a big table sweetie - This could be a real fun evening with other Fodorite family as well!

Hello, Certainly other fodorites are welcome!!! I have never had to make a reservation for L'Insuaire but when we get the numbers together I will go by there and book a big table. Ok 17 May at 2030.

All the best.
