Snow in Paris... sur le toit de l'Eglise Saint Roch





This morning when we woke up, this is the view from our apartment window looking out on Saint-Roch. The many surfaces of the roof were coated in white. What a beautiful winter scene in Paris!

Bon dimanche...

    Bear - Merci! You are right... this is great weather for bears! Plenty of snow, but time is too short for us to hibernate in Paris!

    Arrivée par hasard sur ton blog (comme souvent).Tes photos sont merveilleuses, et traduisent bien l'atmosphère de Paris -où j'ai vécu 40 ans.-

    I was in France on Thursday and thought I recognised you, but dismissed the idea immediately.

    The last time I was in Paris, the temps were in the 20s, but never snowed. Still didn't stop us from being out and about! Just had more café crème breaks!

    Beautiful Genie!
    Because of the cold weather, it seems to me that it would be the perfect time to indulge in "choucroute garnie", "boeuf Bourguignon" "fondue"... and of course crepes.

    I would have closed the shutters, turned up the heat and went back to bed.

    I can't believe one can have this beautiful a view out an apartment window. I hope you study it for hours and hours, in all kinds of lighting.

    Hi Genie! I love Paris and I love snow so I doule eny you. :) Your apartmen is pretty close to the apartment where we stay.

    I've been busy lately but I look forward to catching up with your wonderful Paris adventure. :)

    p.s. watch out for the guy in the little news stand next to St. Roch he snarled at me when I took a picture. :)
