Last January, as Mary and I walked through the new fallen snow to Place des Vosges. Ma Bourgogne had stacked up the chaises and outside seating was put on hold, even with the heaters. This sign made me smile. I don't think even Berthillon's delightful glaces et sorbets were selling that day.

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Even this had-core Berthillon fan would't go for a yummy coupe in weather like this.
Un vin chaud, s'il vous plait!

You are getting very clever with the titles of this blog! Nice work.
Having only visited Paris in cold months, I have yet to try Berthillon. Perhaps next time I should suck it up and give it a go!
At least they don't melt and run down yer arm...
Non pas de glaces et sorbets....car il fait trop froid!
Il faut attendre le printemps pour manger une glace à la terrasse de Berthillon!
Love the stacked chairs and the new header photo ..
Any time pour une glace Berthillon
I'm with Laurent! I took a shot of these very photogenic chairs when I was there in February '05 (and ate Berthillon in the snow).
Perhaps we could sit inside to indulge???
Well, I was just there on Monday (last week) and we sat outside under the heaters. Of course, that was before the giant snowstorm blew in!
I'll take ice cream in any weather!
Bises,
G
Love this shot--and the banner one too.
But, how did they stack the chairs quite this high?
Probably looks like that again now ! And it's supposed to snow again at the end of this week...
I'm with Genie...ice cream any time.
