The International Weather Forum (Forum International de la Meteo, en francais) is an annual event that is held (mostly) in Paris. It is a great place for forecasters and television weather presenters to come together to discuss the profession.

I have been to Paris many times, but there are a few things that I always do because they reinforce what I find so great about the city. I insist on doing a lot of walking, because it is not only a good way to get the feel of Paris, but the exercise and sunlight help ward off jet lag.

When people ask for travel advice about a place they have never visited, I tell them to take the water tour. Cities in every country in the world grow up around their lakes, rivers, and oceanfronts – so that’s where you will find that city’s identify and history. Norfolk, Virginia is one of those places.
