That’s right — we got a rare snowfall in the city!
Today is the first day of the 6 p.m. curfew. During the day, we can walk around without restrictions; we just have to be inside by 6 p.m. Doesn’t matter where inside is, as long as we don’t leave before 6 a.m. the following day.
I wanted to get a run in, but with sunrise at 8:40 a.m., it’s hard to wake up early. Then, I got cut off by an early snowfall. It started at 10 a.m. and continued through the day. The result: A very pretty snow-covered Montmartre. There was even some skiing at the Square Louise Michel. I only wish I had seen it.
This was the first significant snowfall in the city in two years. Last year, I saw some wet snow for a few minutes one morning, and that was the extent of the snow I saw all winter. Not that I was complaining. I may be Canadian, but I do despise winter.
Still, the first snowfall is always pretty. Would you like to see pics of a snow-covered Paris? Of course you would.








That cinema looks like it would be a lot of fun to visit one day.


Apparently, that extends to the snowmen as well.
Thank you for the magical photos. It is lovely to see this area and get a bit of an idea of Montmartre. Sacre Coeur in the daylight is impressive, although hearing the bells at the New Year was wonderful!
