Its cold here too! I woke up a couple of days ago to a dusting of snow that doesn't happen very often in Texas! The snow on those chairs make me feel cold. What can I say...I've gotten soft since moving here! :)
Starman, Non. They were spaced all along the arcade and in front of Nemours with nothing but the log stands, no decorations at all. Very simple and fresh.
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
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.

What a lovely dusting of snow, but brrrrrr! Although they have the portable heaters for la terrasse, on a snow day the warm, cozy interior is perfect.
The cold wave even reached us here in south. At last!:o)

But oh, the pleasure of sitting outside in the sun in the Spring, having an Orangina and watching the people walk by.
Might cut down on the number of customers they can serve—but it sure does make a good photo, V!
That is so little snow that it is closer to dandruff!
Was the xmas bush decorated?

Jack,
Spoken like a true Yankee! :)
I'll guess no-one was drinking iced tea V. Salut J.
Some day, I'd like to have a cuppa in a winter setting !
In December I was inside for the very first time and was surprised how small it is.
