I asked one of the vendors along the Arc de Triophe and he told me that I have to purchase a telephone card at the Post Office. Voila! I was able to buy not only a calling card but also postage stamps so I can mail my postcards in time!
The Post Office is about two blocks away where I was. When you are walking at the Champs Elysees, look for the street sign Rue Balzac. Go up the street passing a small theater, called Cinema Balzac on the left side and a hotel on the right side. The Post Office is to the right side with a flag in front of it.
The calling card is about 7.50 euros and there is an instruction how to use it. The stamps for other countries is about .65 euros.My fondest memory is seeing the Eiffel Tower flicker at night. I always dreamed of getting to Paris and seeing the famous landmark. I finally made my dream come true! Also, seeing the famous painting of Leonardo Davinci, Monalisa.
