Thank you for the great ideas! Paris Walks does look like fun. I also like the guided tour from about.com above - I will print that out.
Traviata, not for a few months, yet. You guys will be home by then! Maybe we can meet for brunch and talk about your trip before I go?

A favorite stop in the northern part of the Marais is the Marché des Enfants Rouges on rue de Bretagne. The oldest covered market in Paris, stalls sell prepared food of several ethnic varieties. Can get crowded at lunchtime, but worth a stop for sure. In the back row is a stall where Alain makes legendarily delicious sandwiches and wraps which are perfect to take down the block to the park for a spur of the moment picnic. Free WiFi in the park, too. http://tinyurl.com/lpchqnw and https://fr-fr.facebook.com/ChezAlainMiamMiam
