The Marais is great..thats where we were last month..a lot busier than it used to be..look out for the dumb bicyclists.
Yeah that’s a great walking area. We strolled over to some weird museum that had all sorts of stuffed beasts and old hunting guns. Thought the kid would enjoy the former, which she did.

Was it in that Westfield Mall that’s mostly underground (connected to the Les Halles train station)? Saw signage for one opening there.

yep
Haha we went there a bunch during our stay, was a five minute walk. The Monoprix came in handy for essentials, and I bought a set of hex wrenches across the street to tighten up the wobbly af kitchen table in our unit.
You were right next to the place that specializes in all things pork that I think I recommended a few pages back.

I have a timeshare in what looks to be the “Montreuil” neighborhood. A couple blocks north of what looks to be a huge park that contains the Paris Zoo.
Is this a good part of town?
The south edge of the park is on the Marne River right about where it joins the Seine.
If you look at a map of Paris there is a loop surrounding the city. This is outside the loop a little to the East.

What little I’ve seen outside the loop and towards the edge of the loop (driving to/from CDG, trains to Versailles and Euro Disney) was not inspiring.

Been in Paris for a few hours and already dying from embarrassment. We asked a waiter at a wine bar we stopped at for some recs, and according to our airbnb host, they’re not that great. Then we half-jokingly mentioned to our host that we would want French onion soup, she said, “nobody eats that.”
I can’t stop laughing.
