Place du Tertre

Usually packed with artists and tourists, Place du Tertre was empty on this winter day.

I Love Paris in the Winter...


















When it drizzles or snows. Dress warmly, but not too much, and venture out on foot. After a good walk, enjoy a vin chaud.

Here are the rest of the lyrics...

'Every time I look down on, this timeless town
Whether blue or gray be her skies
Whether loud be her cheers or whether soft be her tears
More and more do I realize that

I love Paris in the spring time
I love Paris in the fall
I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles
I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles

I love Paris every moment
Every moment of the year
I love Paris
Why, oh, why do I love Paris?
Because my love is here'

Paris at Night

 
 
As all who have spent some time in Paris well know, the transportation system is extensive and relatively inexpensive. Both the Métro and bus system will take you anywhere. If time is of the essence, then the Métro is the way to go. Otherwise, a trip by bus can be like a really cheap tour, winding through the streets of each arrondissement. During pleasant weather, nothing beats a boat ride on the Seine.

Crêpes Stand

One of the best things after a stroll along the Champs Elysées is a crêpes and a chocolat chaud!

Paris Bridge

















I've been away from blogging for quite a while. My last post was in July and March before that. I lost my mojo, but I've got it back now.

I've selected this image as the first of what I hope/intend will be the daily posting of My Paris Photos.  Strangely, although I've traveled over this bridge many times, I was hard-pressed to come up with its name. But, thanks to my trusty Plan de Paris, I discovered that it called Pont au Change. The familiar La Conciergerie is shown in the background.

While most of my prior images were black & white, I will likely intermittently post color images as well.

Thanks for visiting and feel free to leave a comment.
