Upon returning to the US, you realize that we really like to work. Closing is a special thing that only some businesses do only on holidays and wee hours in the night. Conversely, opening is the rarity in France.
Do you want something after 7PM? Sure you do. Better know the one place in all of Paris that opens after that oppressive hour.
Conversely, if you are running out at the insane hour of 10PM, you can probably still buy most what you want and everything you need in the US.
Ironically, museums have late nights. Restaurants stay open relatively late. You can find a place to drink at any point of the night.
Maybe it is expected to use some of the many vacation days for shopping? Or maybe, just maybe, the French have their priorities straight.
Cheers.
