That's it, after a few days in cold Boston, here is time for me to go back to... cold Paris! When you read this I'll hopefully be flying towards my beautiful city, ready to start a new round of Paris photos. I did not have much time to read all your comments these past days (that is also what vacations are about, aren't they?!) but I'll catch up tomorrow... Again, a happy new year for everyone. We want a booming economy in 2010, no depressions!

Have a safe flight to Paris, Eric and welcome backk in your city!
WOW, I did not think Boston was that snowy! Thanks for the evidence :)
There is no snow in Paris at the moment but that's cold for sure! Today I felt the cold even more than the one I experienced in the Alps, at a higher altitude. Much more, which always amazes me but that's a true feeling.

Get home safely and stay warm! Trust you had a great time on this side of the pond. Please feel free to take a break whenever you need to—just as long as you come back to your faithful francophile followers!

I suspect Boston will never be the same again. Safe travels!!

Hey, what happened to my "Eiffel Tower Suzy" name? Must investigate...

Eric, always enjoy your picture of Paris.
Just to let you know, a Buddhist statue in Bangkok have their costume changed 3 times a year depending on the weather. Pretty cool.

I thought you were in Brussels because the little boy looked like Manikin Pis--sorry for the spelling--then I saw he was covered up. Ever so chic Parisian in his colorful scarf, tho.

Nice and safe trip home Eric.
A great 2010 for you.

Bonne annee and no more depression ever! Enlightment for the devil and happiness for the angels!

Why didn't the person who wrapped this little fellow in a scarf also clean him up a bit? He's dusty. OMGoodness, I sound like my mother!
Welcome home, Eric.

Yes, let's hope the new year doesn't unravel anymore than this dapper little scarf.

Wow, this is an example of yarn bombing in Paris! Very observant! Good job, Eric!
Have a safe trip!

I think I'll need more than a cute scarf to keep me warm when j'arrive this Friday Eric! Brrr, but it's below freezing here in Birmingham as well so I'll just be happy to duck in many cafes for wine to stay warm in Paris!
Hope to see you next week in a very toasty bistro! :)

Safe flight, Eric. And good wishes to all for a great 2010.

Have a safe flight and stay warm!
In my country, Estonia, it was -20 last week and here is about 40 cm of snow :D

Safe trip home, Eric ~ snuggle up!

I only just found your site. I love your photos!!! I am coming to Paris for 48 hours in March and can't wait. I only came for the first time last summer and loved your city!!
I am putting together a little post for my blog on Paris for later this month or beginning of Feb and then a follow up one in March. Are you ok for me to include your blog?
Salut!

What a beautifull little gem.

What a great photo -- and sense of humor. Everytime I look at it, it makes me smile.
@Eric..."I did not have much time to read all your comments" Oh NO, you aren't reading this nonsense. We did not expect you to while you were on vacation. You are so sweet -- isn't he everyone? I hope I didn't make you blush.

@sckhoo...Merci for the link to the Emerald Buddha. That was interesting.
@Wren...I think that is grafitti on the little cherub.

We all need our scarves at the moment, Eric!

It's funny how you are dying to shovel snow th first time you see it....and then grow less eager with each additional snow storm!!

Not only was it cold in Boston but you got to experience quite a bit of snow! Just when I thought it was going to end it would start all over again. Boston is a lovely city while dusted with snow - but it can't hold a candle to Paris:)
Safe journey!
And thank you for continuing to bring us our daily fix while on your vacation - how very generous of you!
