Esther,
Have you been to Paris before? what part of Paris are you staying in? What sort of things are you interested in?
One thing that's nice if you haven't done it before is to take the Batobus (not to be confused with the bateaux mouches tourist boats) that goes around the Seine in a circle. Since I often stay on the Left Bank, sometimes I'll get a 2 or 3 day ticket because it's fun to take certain parts of it. Also the Pont des Arts is a nice short walk across the Seine - it's a wooden walking only bridge near the Pont Neuf, also it's a lovely place to take photos.
One piece of advice - always say Bonjour Madame to a woman or Bonjour Monsieur to a man before asking a question in a store, etc. The French are fanatics about this courtesy and will treat you different if you understand their code of behavior.
Have fun.
Sarah
