So not yesterday, but the day before, it snowed all day. Apparently Paris is having once-in-a-decade- implement weather. I don't think you can really see any snow in this picture, but there was quite a bit of it. This photo is of the Champs-Elysées Avenue, that runs away from the Arc de Triomphe just like Congress runs away from the Capital. There's a better picture of it on Wiki. Champs is more like New York 5th Avenue than Congress though. This is where all the big stores are, like Louis Vitton, Peaugot, and Versace, although I didn't see it while we were out. It's only a 10 minute walk from where we are living, so maybe next time. Our next trip will be to the Latin Quarter.

Oh, you innocent Texan! That's not snow.
ReplyDeleteIts just a little slush on the sidewalk.
This is what a lot of snow looks like:
