Those languid Parisians are now real fitness freaks (although they still manage to balance things out with a fine respect for indulgence). Gyms and fitness clubs are a penny a barrel, the parks are rife with cardio bunnies and adventure sports are trés chic.

boating

On an airy summer's day get onto the cool of the water - float down the Seine (or the Marne, the Oise or any of the city's canals) in a canal boat. Rentals are available year-round.

I'm happy to point to the announcement that Wikitravel Press now has a guide to Paris. Paris has long been a targeted city for Wikitravel Press, and I'm really happy we were able to get this book out.

Well, it’s been crappy month for my blog — not a single post since last month. It’s been a hectic July with lots of family activity, and I’ve been offline more than is the norm. Luckily, I finally have something cool enough to get me out of this slump behavior… Today my friends Evan and Maj [...]
