Firstly, thanks to all the wonderful advice I got on this website. I just got an e-mail from Vacation in Paris that the key to the apartment is in the mail. Woo-hoo. We like to take some time out of the day to just sit and recharge absorbing the ambience. I found a little book on Amazon with the above title by Jean-Christophe Napias. He lists parks, passageways and courtyards by arrondissement. For example, after walking along rue Mouffetard, one could sit at the Grand Mosque of Paris, 2 place du Puits-de-l'Ermite and/or visit Jardin des Plantes. In the Marais, after visiting Victor Hugo's house, nearby is Jardin Saint-Gilles-Grand-Veneur, rue des Arquebusiers. This garden is on the author's top 3 list.
Enjoy.
Chun -I love that book too!
