The Paris/Amsterdam Trip
As I mentioned earlier, I’m heading to Paris and Amsterdam in just about two weeks from today. While I’ve been thinking about this trip for some time now, as I was doing some investigating into airfare the other day I realized that the time period of the 13th through 21st was really the only time I could go out of town for a prolonged period of time prior to Comic-Con International in late July. The beginning of June is going to be busy with set-up for a new feature on CBR, which I need to be around for throughout the month. Plus, June is when we really begin planning for Comic-Con in earnest. And while I would have loved to travel over Memorial Day weekend, I want to be home that day. So, it had to be then.
I’ve never been to either city and would absolutely love any and all suggestions on places to go, things to see, food to check out, etc. — do you have a favorite cafe in Paris I must visit? Leave a comment! Do you have a favorite coffee shop in Amsterdam? Let me know! I know the obvious choices such as the Eifel Tower, the Louvre, the Van Gogh museum, the Rembrant museum, etc. — how about those places off the beaten path you think I’ll enjoy?
The person who offers up the best suggestion will get a present from my trip, so let’s hear ‘em!
