Springtime in Paris

Spring seems to have arrived early here in Paris.  Already, we spotted some blooming flowers here and there.

Yesterday, however, Spring was even more evident.  The high temperature was 68°F, and we saw more blooms in the Tuileries garden.  Check it out.  



We also spotted a few locals sans chemises (without shirts) (men) soaking up some rays from the sun.  

Of course, the official arrival of Spring is still 3 weeks away and the forecast has some cooler weather in store for us.  Even worse, according to a tour guide we recently met, neige (snow) in March is a possibility.  It snowed in Paris last March.  Ay caramba!

Still, we are very happy to be here and we are relieved that arriving in Paris at the end of January was not too foolish.  After all, Winter in Paris is better than Summer in some other places.  Right?
