Il pleure dans mon cœur...

« Il pleure dans mon coeur comme il pleut sur la ville. Quelle est cette langueur qui pénêtre mon coeur ? O bruit doux de la pluie par terre et sur les toits! Pour un coeur qui s’ennuie, O le chant de la pluie! » - Baudelaire

I have to disagree that "Paris is the most beautiful in the rain." (Midnight in Paris), but I can't help feeling a little be sad to leave this beautiful city. It will be good to be home and I know I'll be back!

It has been unseasonably cold in Paris these past few days and, last night, it snowed about one inch. At home, an inch would hardly be noticed, but here in Europe, a little snow is a big deal. In fact, our flight from Paris to Dublin tomorrow afternoon has already been cancelled. The good news is that we got on a good ole American flight directly from Paris to Chicago and will be home about six hours earlier than planned. It's wonderful to visit the places you love, but there's no place like home!

I ♥ Paris

I love Paris in the springtime. I love Paris in the fall. I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles. I love Paris in the winter when it...snows (like today)!
