City Parks, a popular destination for locals.

Parisians can often be seen sitting and chatting in local cafés in the mid-afternoon and early evenings before heading out for a late dinner. Another favorite place for the locals are the parks. Parisians love sitting and walking in parks! At the Jardin du Luxembourg and the Parc du Champs de Mars, we found many Parisians sitting in the parks for lunch or just taking-in the sun and warm of early spring. Adults as well as kids seemed to enjoy the parks equally. Bocce Ball played openly without formal courts was a common sight. However, the actual size of their Bocce ball is smaller than the ones in my set.
