]]> La RentréeAs the summer winds down (although it wasn’t much of a summer weather wise) after the 15th of August Parisians begin to return home for the start of the new school year and a return to the workplace, which the French call, la Rentrée. Paris little by little begins to bustle once again with activity and people everywhere, looking tanned and healthy, are still somewhat in holiday mode. Not for long, however, just as the beautiful bronze color hue begins to fade, reality sets in that the leisurely days of summer are fading just as fast!

La RentréeA few days are left for you to take advantage of the Fête des Tuileries, free parking, and the Dalida expo, but don’t worry there’s plenty more things brewing as Paris once again becomes the busy cosmopolitan capital of the world!
