Closed for the Holidays
One of the challenges of being in Paris for the Holidays is that sometimes it seems that everyday is either a Holiday or a Weekend day. So most days are holidays (when things and closed) or weekends (when things are very crowded)
In addition, it is not unusual for some establishments (especially restaurants) to close for a week between Christmas and New Years
Open or Closed Lists which Museums are closed during the Holidays
Although larger grocery stores may be closed, smaller convenience stores maybe still be open (those that are open can be really crowded)
Plan ahead, stock up and make Purchases before the Holiday
ATM Machines may be empty on Holidays, maybe even the afternoon before
In response, one of our goals is to maximize those remaining weekdays
