The Louvre is just OK – really big with a lot of old stuff in it – a bunch of famous paintings sure – but I didn’t enjoy it nearly as much as D’Orsay. I highly recommend you do that if you want to go see some art.
I also recommend the Rodin museum – small but enjoyable.
Spend an evening strolling and dining rue Mouffetard – cool vibe – lots of great places to eat.
If the weather is good I like a picnic in Jardin Luxembourg.
A good triple is to visit the Paris Mosque for lunch, cross the street and visit Jardin des Plantes (botanical garden, and the gallerie of evolution – a natural history museum) – they are all in about the same place.
I tend to avoid the champs elysee because the crowds are just too much.
Have fun – I used to live there and miss it.
