Paris GTG early May?

I will be in Paris and :may" be available for a GTG between May 8 and 16. I say "may" because we have plans for Le Cordon Bleu and day trips.

BUT, I would be interested if there Fodorites in the neighborhood, it would be nice to meet.

Well, we'll keep fishing for attendees... Anyone in Paris from May 8 to the 16th? Let's make the GTG a wee bit bigger.

Okay dwzemens... it's your wife and me, perhaps my daughter... I'm not sure she's up for a Fodor's GTG.

What works best for you and your wife. I can't do meet the 13th. The 14th or 15th look best for me? We just need to find a meeting cafe.

Anyone Else in the Neighborhood?

Hi guys:
Have you made any definite plans yet for a GTG?

We'll be there then, May 10-16.

Sunday May 14th early evening looks good for us. The 15th is our last day/ night.

It's me Di and DH Cosmo.
We'll be at Hotel Bourdonnais (7th)
Where are you guys staying?

Let me know, we're leaving this Thursday May 4th.

The 15th is best for David. Works for us. We just have to figure the where and when. I recommended the Le Totem, 17, place du Trocadéro 75116 Paris. Trocadero. Tel: 33 (0)1 47 27 28 29. In the Palais de Chaillot. There is a bar and a restaurant.

Not great food but a killer view! I also thought the 13th in the Quail Hill area would be fun, but I don't know any restaurants there.

Let me know, I'll call in reservations when I arrive. We leave Wednesday May 3. We are staying in an apartment just around the corner from the Trocadero. You can email me at [email protected]

I hope to see both!

My mom and I get into Paris on the 14th (Sunday), so the next day would probably be better for us. Would love to meet some other Fodorites again! Email me at (my fodor's name)@gmail.com.

Ok guys we're in.

Danna, I just read about that place the past few days (can't remember in what guidebook). We were looking for a place in the Trocadero for our 1st evening to celebrate getting to Paris.
It looked like a great bar and said the views were incredible.

Sounds like a fun place, count us in.

We'e arriving from Normandy on the 10th and just going to be flexible that day/night.

I'll email you with our address and cell# we'll have there.

Lunch (dinner) or an afternoon apperitif on the 15th? This gives Di & Cosmo the chance to make other plans for their last night in Paris and g33kgrl and her mom the chance to get settled.

It looks like we are now 7 (or 8 if daughter is interested) anyone else want to come out to play?
