Buzzfeed Provides a Parisian’s Guide to Paris

The list of things to do in Paris posted in Buzzfeed all look spectacular.  I’d certainly want to do stuff more off the beaten path when going back (and it will be a WHEN, not an IF).  I have visited a few of these previously (Visiting the Musee D’Orsay, Pere Lachaise Cemetery) but many I haven’t.  I’ve linked to the Buzzfeed article if you click on the picture below, but I’ve also listed out the things they recommend just in case the link dies in the interim before heading back to Paris!

Also, in other news, NBCU is throwing a West Coast company-wide Christmas party at the Universal Studios Theme Park tonight.  Here’s hoping it’s a fun night where we get free reign in the park!  Pictures to come tomorrow.
