flygirl, the spectacular bathroom on Rue Dauphine was just as functional as it was breathtaking! It was a very happy week there for me. Septime was wonderful - I also don't remember everything I ate, but do remember the venison. It was a wonderful first dinner to kick off my trip. I did not make the dinner at Frenchie on this trip, but had been on a previous trip and prefer Septime as well. I think the dining theme for the entire trip is "when in doubt, there were scallops

So enjoying reliving the trip through your report.

Glad you enjoyed Septime. It was our favorite from last December. Looking forward to the next installment.

Grr! I had a new installment half written yesterday.. went to sleep without saving it.. and fodors logged me out overnight which deleted the whole thing. Whimper.

Here is a teaser, photos of just Reims Cathedral, nothing else:

Lisa, good to hear that the bathroom was a delight to use!

I found the link for the photos for this particular apartment, check it out folks. Look at that huge bathroom!

Patty, I saw your restaurant list - wow, if Septime was your favorite, it was in good company! I had hoped to visit "Un Dimanche a Paris" for hot chocolate one morning but I spent so much time wandering I couldn't fit it in along with the exhibit I hoped to see, too.

Oh, how frustrating!! Sorry that happened, flygirl.

Lisa did enjoy the huge bathroom....I prefer a walk-in shower to a bathtub and she benefited in this case!

Great photos and a wonderful report. I've bookmarked that apartment. Looks like something I might be interested in...thanks.

Even though I've been to Paris many times and visited a lot of the places you've listed, I feel like I've missed so much after reading your report!

I have to go back soon.
