Great advice-thanks! What about Euros-I see so far that it may be cheaper to change cash into Euros before I go, at least through my bank that is....any tips suggestions on that?

Some Wells Fargo branches keep foreign currency on hand, as do some AAA branches.

The Travelex ATM at my airport will dispense Euros, but not sure if it is a ripoff compared to the bank or AAA.

Paris is one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world, don't stress they deal with asians, Africans, Indians, and Americans daily everywhere.

Absolutely no need to worry about money until you get there. I'd bring $250 or so in cash outside of your wallet as an emergency in case you lose your wallet. Outside of that, there will be tons of ATMs at the airport. There is usually a large ATM 'center' with 4-10 atms where everyone exits as most do this.Generally my first move off the airplane is to go to an ATM to get 400 euros, then grab my bags, then work on transport to the hotel.

The best exchange rates are almost always ATMs at your destination. Banks here may keep foreign money but they'll charge you a premium.
