less than one day in paris. What to do with my luggage?

I am doing a driving tour of some parts of europe starting from paris for a few days then returning a few weeks later to drop off the car back at paris in the morning. I have to be at the airport (CDG) at 5pm.

Whilst looking around at paris again, what do we do with our luggage? There are 4 of us we will have 2 large suitcases plus smaller bags.

Thanks

Jared, one idea is to ask at the rental agency when you pick up the car. Tell them that you're returning the car in the morning and ask if they would be kind enough to store your luggage behind their counter or somewhere for the day. You might offer to pay them a few Euro to do so. I'd take along a cable lock and loop it through the handles of all the pieces just to be safe. Of course you'll lock each piece. If they are unable or unwilling to store it, they may be able to help you find a place.

You have posted several threads about a convoluted itinerary in England and now you have a new convoluted itinerary on the continent. Which is it jared?

if i was seeking to waste you time I would do so with a different name.

i don't recall giving a convoluted itinerary on the continent as yet because my convoluted itinerary on the continent is not relevant to the needs of what to do with my luggage.

Can a tourist not have both a convoluted itinerary on the continent AND a convoluted itinerary in England?

Do you ahve something against convoluted itinerarys on the continent or in England?

Do tourists not sometimes have convoluted itinerarys where you are from?

Do you prefer to stay in one place and watch the inside of your room?

Perhaps someone should warn the authorities that there is a tourist seeking to have a convoluted itinerary on the continent after having a convoluted itinerary in England.

I didn't realise that people claiming to have a convoluted itinerary on the continent after having a convoluted itinerary in England were generally regarded as being fishy or being a troll.

I thought trolls tend to stay in their rooms all the time rather than having a convoluted itinerary on the continent after having a convoluted itinerary in England.

Oooh I am asking about where to place luggage.....I must be a wicked person seeking something troublesome to do!!

Quick, nobody encourage me cos I might come and have a convoluted trip in the USA after having a convoluted itinerary on the continent and after having a convoluted itinerary in England.

IDIOT!

Ask a simple questioon, get some nice people to answer PLUS the bonus moron with an attitude.

Sorry to the rest of you for my sarcastic and not so nice reply but I've had my trip already stuffed up by people who think they control the world and now I got some moron giving me crap as if (s)he controls what is acceptable and not acceptable here.

Jared, I thought Something Fishy Here was nuts, UNTIL you answered him. He (she?) never said troll. Then you respond with a FOURTEEN PARAGRAPH diatribe! Me thinks you doth protest too much. Aren't you the one who want to hit like 27 places in about 3.5 days? Perhaps if you lower your dosage a little it will help you cope better.

The main railway stations in Paris have left luggage offices. Bags have to go through a scanner.

Jared,

Check with the airline you'll be flying out of CDG whether you can already check in for your flight that morning. If yes, simply drop your car at CDG, check in and take the Air France bus into town to explore for the day.
