If you watched the news today, you will have seen the crazy weather in Paris. Seriously, this was a bizarre day - it started snowing and just didn't stop for hours. At one point, it was an actual, honest-to-god, proper blizzard - which I know because I was outside, doing the penguin shuffle along the slipperiest surface on the planet (snow on top of wet leaves on top of cobblestones - yikes), and trying not to fall on my arse into the disgusting, mucky slush. And why was I doing this? To take photos for you, gentle readers. Enjoy...

The Louvre is in the background, but good luck seeing it. |

The Tuileries looking even more ridiculously pretty than usual. |

The Musee d'Orsay is in the background. Good luck seeing that, too. |

In the Tuileries. |

The Tuileries - and some very unhappy-looking seagulls. I feel you, boys. |

The Tuileries. Dude, I feel your pain. |

Although this lady seems to be enjoying the snow. |

At the Arc du Carrousel. My "Impressionist" photo. |

Arc du Carrousel - the big thing you can almost see in the background is the Louvre. |

The Louvre - the pointy snowy thing is the pyramid, although it's hard to see. |
