La neige à Paris



For the four trips to Paris in January, only once, ONCE, was I lucky enough to experience a magical snowfall, January 2010.  That morning held another delightful surprise. For the first time since I had visited Paris, the construction walls had been taken down overnight to reveal the newly restored Colonnes de Buren I'm grateful for the wonderful memories of that morning walking through the Palais Royal with Mary.

Stunning, Virginia! I, too, have seen Paris in the snow! Twice. Once in January. Once in March. I am off next week!!!

I have been in Paris twice when it snowed, but never heavy like your photo. The black and white columns look much better contrasted against the snow.

How lovely! I have only been to Paris in the summer.

I agree with Sarah, they look so pretty in the snow! One of these days, I'll see them in person again.
