This is a brief web to contain some of the snapshots that We took on a one
week excursion to Paris in November of 1998. The last update to this site was
5/20/1999.
Jet lag is the bane of intercontinental travelers. But when you find
yourself wide awake in the early hours of the morning, you might as well
go out and take a picture of the sunrise. Parisians, who think nothing of
partying 'till dawn, have a term for the hour before sunrise: "L'heure
bleue", the blue hour. |

Paris in November has drawbacks: it's cold! The fountains in the
Tuileries gardens were going, even though frozen over. |
 |
Paris in November has advantages: "Look, ma, no tourists!" |
 |
Special considerations are necessary when taking pictures in cold
weather:
- Hold your breath so you don't get a picture of fog.
- Keep the mitten away from in front of the lens.
