Storing bags during short stopovers Paris Brussels etc

I have a 15 hour layover in Paris. Later we will be traveling through Bussels and a few towns in the Netherlands on my way to Amsterdam. Are there places to store our bags in Charles De Gaulle? How about in Brussels and other towns. It would be difficult to carry all through our walks around time. I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks to all.

I don't think there are bag storage facilities in the airport. At least not for lockers. Security reasons. Why not store it at Gare de Nord? You can get off at Gare de Nord from the Airport train. That is also the station to take the Thalys and other trains to Brussels and Amsterdam.

We were able to stash our luggage at the Brussels Central train station luggage lockers last year as we were travelling from Luxemboug to Brugge. The cost was E1.50 - E3.50 for 24 hours, depending on which size locker you will need. I'm sure Paris has luggage lockers also.

We also stashed our luggage at Rotterdam Centraal station. Cost was E2.50 for 24 hours. You can check Netherlands rail schedules at:

www.ns.nl

They recently revamped their website (and I can't get on it this morning) but they use to have information about all of the train stations and what services they provide ie. luggage lockers, bathrooms, places to eat, other shops in the station. They had a map which showed the layout for each station and where to find the lockers and toilets, etc. Hope this helps. Peace.

There are lockers and attended storage in Brussels. Larger city stations in NL have lockers. Check at www.ns.nl for station facilities.
