I like the people in Paris and had a great time.  Paris reminds me of New York, everyone is in a hurry and people have a place to go.  Sit yourself in a cafe or bar and enjoy the sights and take in a smile or two.  Paris is one place I wish I spent more time in.

Camera lens: on this trip I used a Nikkor 28-200mm D lens.  Not liked by many but is quite useful when you want the all in one lens.  I now use a Nikkor 24-120mm VR lens as my all in one lens.
