We're going back to Paris for a weekend in December!!! I know, I know - I was just there in September, but you can never get enough can you? Staying at the Park Hyatt Place Vendome (DH travels alot - we have points!). Has anyone stayed there? I'm sure it will be lacking the neighborhood atmosphere of our usual hotel, but what the heck! Will the skating rink be opened by Hotel De Ville? I am so psyched!!!!!

WOW! What a nice gift! Happy Birthday!

Goody for you, Lori.

How exciting! Enjoy!

Very nice! We went to Paris over Christmas a couple of years ago. It's lovely. My favorite thing was getting to the Arch de Triumph in the late afternoon and stopping for vin chaud until the lights went on decorating the trees along the Champs elesee. Walking to the Louvre from there. Beautiful! Yes, the skating rink was operating. There's a webcam somewhere that you can look at it before you go.

Have a WONDERFUL trip!

Your husband clearly understands the important things in life!

Have a blast and don't forget to spend part of an evening checking out the window decorations at Samaritaine and the other department stores while eating a crepe or some roasted chestnuts.

Well, what a great birthday present. I think Paris in winter could be grand.Congratulations on the husband as well

Paris is what all good girls get to go for a present (Hopefully, wishingly)
.......Congratulations !

Ah Mimi, Now I know why I have never been so Paris!!! And I always wondered.
quot;>. Have a good day and I wish you could get that little French pup home to you. Best wishes.

Lori, Can your husband call my husband and give him some gift suggestions? Have a wonderful time!

that's fabulous Lori! have a great time!

Lori,
Please let me know how you liked the Park Hyatt when you return. I'll be staying there for the first time in January. Thanks and have a great trip!

Yes, the rink is open. Don't break a leg!
