β¦ Synopsis
We used this book on a recent trip to Paris. Some of the places recommended in this book do not even exist anymore. The description of the Paris Zoo sounded great, so we took the metro quite a way out of Paris to spend the day there. The elephants, tigers and lions are long gone. Many of the exhibits were old, overgrown, and deserted. When we asked the employees about the large animals, they responded that the animals had not been at the zoo in many years. I don't think this zoo will be open much longer.
We are going to Vancouver this summer. We have not been there in 5 years, so I assumed that I needed to buy a new edition of "Vancouver with Kids". Before I bought it, I checked the date of publication. Guess what? It was 2001! So all I had to do is go home and pull-out the same edition that I had used 5 years before.
