Q1U-ing in Paris

Life is pretty sureal at present. I've been travelling for some time and now I am in Slovenia waiting for mt delayed flight to Paris. So with two kids in hand I decided that there is no better way to kill time than to connect my son and I to the Airport WiFi. I gave my son the little OQO and I took the awesome little travel mate, i.e. the Samsung Q1U.

I'll be in Paris for the next week and will make an effort to post some more Q1U-ing on the road. Who knows, maybe you'll hear from me from the Eiffel Tower, or from Disneyland Paris.

I hope you're all well. Speak soon!

Hi Hugo !!

you're in my town next weeek !!... Great !!!

You will discover the most beautiful town in the world (yes...I know... I'm french and chauvinistic...)

If you need a free hotspot while you go for a walk in Paris, do not hesitate to visit this web site :

http://www.paris.fr/portail/Economie/Portal.lut?page_id=7799&document_type_id=5&document_id=31302&portlet_id=17981

You will find all the web free access in Paris gardens (list hotspots in all gardens for each district = "arrondissement")

Enjoy !!!

Hey Copycat!

Thank you for the welcome. I am here now and loving it! I am in love! It is MORE than I expected.

I will check out te WiFi!!! (What;s a great Restaurant in Paris Centre for a man with a wife and two kids...but wants the Paris ambiance???

Hey Hugo,

As you know I'm French and cooking is a very touchy subject for me....;-)

If I listen to my stomach I will advise you booking a table in great restaurant with a famous chef ...but these places are certainly booked for ages (and prices are very high...)

If I well understand you look for espacially "Paris ambiance" ...and I hope French cooking (it's no used covering thousand miles to come here and taste Australian one ;-D)

So to answer your question, I advise you booking table in a FLO Brasserie

http://www.flobrasseries.com/brasseries/en/

I know all of them and I prefer followings:

LE VAUDEVILLE in front of the stock exchange and near from "OPERA GARNIER"

LE BOFINGER at "LA BASTILLE" you will make the revolution

LE TERMINUS NORD : in front of "GARE DU NORD" (if you cross the street and go into the station you will discover TGV : faster train in the world)

I advise you booking before (especially Saturday evening)

Enjoy !!

Hi Hugo,

I agree with Copycat (^^), a brasserie is a great idea! During the working days, I don't think booking is necessary.
Please notice that next Thursday, public transport in Paris will strikes.
Enjoy your stay.

Bon Jour my French friends,

I have to start by letting you know that Paris is just one of the most special places on earth. Thank you for your advice; especially that of the WiFi as it came in handy with the Q1U. As far as food goes here is what we did:
1. Had a nice glass of Bordeaux under the Eiffel Tower with some chips and hot dogs!!!
2. Then we went into the city and had lunch in a Restaurant named Devez. I had the best Cappachio ever!
3. Last we finished up at Notre Dame and a candlelit Dinner at a Cafe/Bar named “Cafe Le Petit Pont!” Our table was next to the live Piano and we enjoyed every second!
All up Paris is one of the most memorable experiences I have had. We are already planning a trip back some day.

Thank you Copycat and others!!!

Hey Hugo - when you're in Paris check out the pushbikes that you can hire in Central Paris.

I'm currently in the delivery room waiting for my wife to give birth! Hope you're having a good time!

All the best,

Jon Dee
