FEBRUARY 2013– A 4 day weekend in winter is the perfect time to visit Paris. Lines at EuroDisney are relatively short, tourists in the city are scarce and lodging is a bit cheaper. One thing you won’t find in winter is flowers and fountain shows. We managed a trip to tour the interior of the Palace of Versailles but I can only imagine how fabulous the grounds would be in their summer glory. We were fortunate to have sunny skies and mild temperatures so we put on our walking shoes and hit the streets.
