I do not have people of my own in Paris. I'm not sure I have people of my own. We're going there because my solo experiences there were some level of why ricevermicelli decided that she was going to marry me (there I was having all sorts of fun, and she was stuck at work. Clearly she was doing something wrong.) I know that there are three CI jams a week there, and I have some hand drawn maps from the memory of someone who hasn't been to them in a few years (Olivier Besson, cartographer to the stars!). Pointers or contacts would be great, but I have faith that we'll manage to have fun either way.
As for how fabulous it is, let me say that the last time I was there (I was there in 2001, and before that in 1973. The first time it didn't impress me much. To be fair, I wasn't yet 1.) I got sick and tired of saying "Wow, that's pretty." But then I would turn around and have to say it again.
As further push, I was talking to my boss, and he mentioned that some years back he promised his wife that they would go to Paris by, or for, her 40th birthday. She's now 43 and still un-Paris-ed. Life just kept getting in the way.
