A Sunday Drive in the 15th Arrondissement of Paris, France

The 15th used to be grungy -- even dangerous. There were car factories here, meat markets and slaughterhouses, warehouses. Now, it is quite chic.
This part of Paris is now served by a tramway, the 3 line. Buy your métro/bus/tramway tickets in ten-packs (carnets) in métro stations and tobacco shops for a huge savings.
Those tourist transit passes are way overpriced.
I've had quite a few jobs in the 15th and hated it. It's a big arrondissement, to the South of Paris, and it always took me at least an hour or two to get to work. I can be in Brussels, Belgium in less time than I can get to the 15th via public transportation from where I live in Saint-Denis, just to the North of Paris! Feh.
Much of Paris is closed on Sundays, but it's a special day for people. On Sundays, pastry is eaten, and an outing happens in the afternoon, even if it's just a walk in one of the many city parks. Sunday lunches can last up to four hours and are very convivial. The French tend to eat light but Sunday lunches, anything goes. Often lots of alcohol, too. Always bring flowers when you visit anyone in France. They can be cheap ones. Never bring wine -- that's an insult to the host or hostess and implies they don't have enough to serve. What you bring is also not likely to go with what is being served!
Cars are discouraged now in Paris but parking is free on Sundays. (Saturdays, too, I think, but Paris is very busy then with shoppers.)
Oddly, many restaurants in Paris are closed on Sundays, as it is more a family/friends lunch day.

Bagnols en Foret - A PLACE IN FRANCE
Some 10 miles behind Fréjus and on the edge of the picturesque medieval hilltop village of Bagnols en Foret this is a stylish new gated development south facing and in commanding position with lovely views. It consists of only 36 Mediterranean style apartments in low one storey buildings spread around the attractively landscaped gardens.
Les Cars Rouges - Paris
We visited Paris for 5 days in May 2007 as part of our 7 week drive from Munich to Madrid.
Les Cars Rouge is an open top double decker bus we chose to tour the city one beautiful Parisien evening. Sometimes the touristy thing can be one of the most fun things you can do in a city. The bus route takes in most of the main tourist sites in Paris including the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and the Arc de Triomphe.
The tour takes about 2 hours but you can see much of it here in less than 2 minutes. Enjoy the ride.
