A few days back, it was really cold in Paris and I could have sworn that it was so cold it could have snowed. Well, be careful what you say because it did snow. It did snow a little bit, enough to stick but not completely cover the ground. The pictures were taken on my way to school near my metro stop.

Snow in Paris

Catacombs
Today, a few friends and I decided to venture to the infamous catacombs of Paris. There is a ton of history to the catacombs. Well, we knew it was going to be different because it was bones we were going to see. However, it was a bigger shock than we were expecting. There were bones everywhere! I couldn't even begin to estimate how many skulls we saw. In the pictures above, I tried my best to show the depth of how many bones and skulls were there. There was even a column (pictured above) which had the biggest impact on me because there was even an artistic style to it with the skulls, very strange.
I didn't want to make this post all about the catacombs because it is a little on the depressing side so I decided to shoot the backside of Notre Dame today. It was a beautiful day and the pictures really took themselves. The one above is the best picture of the day.
It was a great day especially after a shower following the catacombs.
