8:00am in PARIS

BY: CATHERINE LIEUWEN

There is lots to do for the early bird in the City of Love. Here are some ideas to get your started.

Early morning….for many people this is the best part of the day. Greet a new day full of joy and anticipation. What could be more wonderful that waking up to early morning adventures in beautiful Paris - the city of Love. Watch the sun rise, savor scrumptious pastries in world famous bakeries and boulangeries, find treasures at local flea markets, check out some of the early cruises along the Parisian canal, exercise, take in a movie, arrange a back stage tour at CDG airport. These are some favorite activities that will be sure to kickoff your day off in this fabulous city.

Sunrise, the symbol of birth, rebirth and awakening. Marvel at the beauty of sunrise in the panorama of ButtesChaumont, located in the 19th arrondissement. Buttes-Chaumont is one of the largest parks in the capital and is open 24 hours a day from May 6th to June 30th. During the summer and winter months, the park opens at 7:00 a.m. This is also where Parke de La Villette, which never closes, is conveniently located. Other spectacular places to enjoy this beautiful ritual is Plateau de Romainville, and Montmartre.
