I suggest going to a evening show (it's more romantic) and that way you can walk along the Champs-Elysees when it's all lit up before and/or after the show...I wouldn't recommend having dinner there since the food is just OK and with so many amazing restaurants to choose from, it would be a waste of money...imo
I have no idea about anything else.....
I know I want crombruche (sp?) and a traditional cake, would love to have some portion of the festivities outside?
Remember that it will be cold...we were there over Christmas it was 20 degrees
How far is the french rivera from the city of Paris....uuugh...to many questions!
Nice is about 600 miles from Paris (you can fly there (a little over an hour) or take the high speed train (6 hours)...there are a lot of places you can see outside the city that are closer...there are day/overnight tours to the champagne region (one of my favorites), Normandy (awesome), the Loure Valley (great if you are a wine buff), Versaille etc...and there is so much to see and do in the city that you don't have to leave it to find things to do...
If you'd like to PM me with any other questions, I'm more than happy to help! Paris holds a special place in my heart and I love to share my experiences there...obviously! LOL...
