    Everything from the streets early in the morning to the late night activities with shopping and eating in between. On my first trip to Paris in 1949, I fell in love not only with this city but London, Edinburgh, Switzerland, Italy, especially Florence, Spain and all in between. Having been on more continents, this is still my favorite and I think Paris especially the Left Bank now somehow part of me wants to always be strolling around looking in windows then when night comes back to my favorite hotel where I am welcomed by those who have been there for years.
