Paris Snow



Woke Thursday morning to snow falling on the streets of Paris! Left the hotel after breakfast to explore the Latin Quarter in more detail and enjoyed the snow covered alley ways, Christmas decorations and store fronts. Checked out of our room early afternoon, stored our bags, and ventured out for a fixe prix late lunch. Had another wonderful gastronomic experience - we are beginning to think there is no end to these in this city. For 10 euros we enjoyed the likes of onion soup, mussels and pate for an appy, salmon, steak and chicken for an entre, and creme caramel and ice cream for dessert. Were picked up by our airport van at 4:30pm and arrived at the airport an hour later. Check in and security were lengthy and somewhat disorganized and after a two hour delay due to snow and de-icing we were finally on our way to Doha/Muscat at 11pm.
