#3 Just back from a trip that included Paris. I and several others were caught in a taxi scam - they don't reset the meter unless you catch them and make them before they pull away, so you owe for your 10 Euro ride plus however many (in my case 28 Euro) the previous passenger(s) had been charged and paid. Never again, Paris.

#4 Like to go in Oct and take a train to the American cemetary in Normandy. Wife has never been. Her father was in the Army Air Corps. Got a bunch of Delta miles I need to use. Air France takes them, or so I'm told. Hope things settle down by then.

#5 Besoeker, that’s one of the things we did - Normandy (though not by train)(and my father-in-law was Army Air Corps…)
