We arrived in Paris on time and tired from an 8 hour flight. Our hotel was exactly what we had envisioned - a small Paris Boutique place where we were repeatedly thanked for coming in the aftermath of the terrorist attack. We walked to the Arc and had a  meal in a great crepe place.  It  was glorious beginning to what would be a most wonderful week.  We were so struck by the friendliness of the people and the incredible European landscape. Our first impression of Paris was exactly what we had wanted and thought it would be.
