Another sunny day in Paris...


What a great day we just had today! Everybody was out, the ice cream places were full, people were dressed like it was summer and you could even see many more smiles than usual... I took this photo at the Pompidou Center (near Beaubourg) because I thought the effect of all these people leaning on the wall, grabbing all the sun they can was really great! When I think the temperature is going to drop like crazy tomorrow... ;-(

  3. great photo. here in Connecticut today it was sunny and 55, yesterday our area had between 5-23inches of snow.

    I saw a guy in shorts today driving his motorcycle on his street and also saw a guy driving with the car top down. tonight we change the clocks so it must be true....spring is really coming!

    nothing like a sunny warm day to bring out the happy smiles :)

  4. This photo is almost exactly where I was standing the last time I saw a certain belle Parisienne when we met for lunch. It was a great day. She did not tell me she would be married in a few months, but when I learned about it I was very happy for her. I certainly hope she and son mari will join us at the picnic this year. Which has not been scheduled yet.

    (This is sounding more and more like 2006, n'est-ce pas?)

  8. I knew it was you. The old timers do. Today's a good day to call, or message on FB, whatever you like.

  9. I blew this up and love the way some of these people are just focused on the sun and some are very aware of you. It was a gorgeous sunny day here in NYC too. Hope the warm weather returns for you soon!

  10. Glad to hear it. We had a few degrees below zero so no ice cream just yet.
