re: Paris In July: Got Any Suggestions?

And FYI... Saying the simple phrase "excusez moi Madame/Monsieur, parlez vous anglais" goes a long way. the people who think the French are rude nine times out of ten went up to some Frenchman And abruptly began speaking english and expecting them to be responsive to their request. They're proud of their language, and rightly so. So if you respect their language by at least trying to speak it, they will more often than not be more than willing to accommodate.

Bon courage! Amuse toi bien.
