<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 122652, member: 23&quot;]We have been taking high school basketball teams to Europe for over 30 years and I can give you a hint about teenagers - they don&#039;t always appreciate what an adult does.&nbsp; When we were in Paris last May we only had two days.&nbsp; It&#039;s not nearly enough to see everything, but you can touch on the major items.&nbsp; Montmartre, Notre Dame, La Tour Eiffel, Pont Neuf.&nbsp; We managed to see quite a lot.&nbsp; If the weather permits, the boat ride down the Seine is a great way to see a lot and save walking.&nbsp; Beware of the scam artists around every site.&nbsp; The latest one are men who come up with multicolor strings and start to weave a bracelet around your wrist.&nbsp; It ends up costing about $7.&nbsp; Maybe your granddaughter would like it, but once you succumb to one, they don&#039;t leave you alone.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t make eye contact, they&#039;ll go away.&nbsp; We didn&#039;t go into the Louvre because it takes about an hour wait and then it&#039;s so huge, it&#039;s impossible unless you have a lot of time.&nbsp; Just visiting the plaza is an experience.&nbsp; You MUST go to the Eiffel Tower at dusk.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if you&#039;ve heard about the light show.&nbsp; It&#039;s amazing and worth the trip.&nbsp; Make sure you get into the front row of the plateau on the upper viewing level and don&#039;t let anyone push you out of the way.&nbsp; Then go down and ride the carousel underneath.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
