Soooo... Yesterday was the 1st day of spring. Too bad the weather gods of Paris are not aware of it ;-) It's cold and rainy, but it's also a good occasion to take cool photos ;-) Here is one I took today (Thursday) at the Hotel de Ville (I'm sure you recognized the building on the left and the beautiful street lamps). I don't know why, but I feel like going on vacation at the moment ;-)

It's the same here in Toronto - no spring at all - just days of snow flurries!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this photo, especially the little shots of red.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo, too. No spring here in NH. We had a foot of snow on Tuesday :(
ReplyDeleteno spring in Connecticut either, not only did we get about 3" more of snow this week, we still have snow from the February blizzard hanging around! winter just will not leave us alone this year. Anne
ReplyDeleteNo Spring here. The snow was up to my knees as I slogged my way to my neighbor's today. SO ready for green and warmer weather!! We got nearly a foot of snow in the last 3 days!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photo! But like many other places in the northern hemisphere, it isn't spring here, either. We had snow flurries today and a biting cold wind.
ReplyDeleteDid you wait to ensure the woman with the red skirt had the spire of Notre Dame on her head?
ReplyDeleteYes, it's cold all over. The normal weather patterns of the past are over, folks. It's all going to be weird now.
OMG, only YOU could spot this!:
DeleteI am in Paris right now as well. It is cold. I am hoping for some warmer weather. great photo.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw your image on the CDP page, I thought it was Venice.

DeleteOlalla,ok thanks for the info..July... Kara
Delete@Julie. It was in March 2009 Julie, exactly 4 years ago. Time really flies, doesn't it? And then Julie came to Paris... Like you soon @Kara. And if you're here on the 5th of May, well, you'll be on time for the PDP picnic, for yes, this year it will take place on May 5th!

DeleteMight you have been thinking of Venice (lamp posts)?!?! It's raining there too....... :))))
ReplyDeleteIt was not only the beginning of spring but also my Wedding Anniversary - always a GOOD DAY!
Cool, really cool shot - sorry to rub it in - it is NOT as spring beginning should be!!!!
You certainly took advantage of the less than springlike weather to get this cool shot! A vacation sounds like a good idea—but you know I'd head straight for rainy Paris. :~}
ReplyDeleteYou can visit Singapore for Summer and skip Spring!
