Another day at the park


Today was a beautiful day. I went with my mom to the park which is right next to my school and I took lots of pictures of the ducks in the pond.

Snow & Rain

For the past few weeks it has been really cold here in Paris. The sky is gray and dark and it has been drizzling on and off the past month. Right now it is raining, but hardly. A few days ago it was so cold here in this apartment that I had a hard time falling asleep. A few of the nights I actually slept in my day clothes because it was so cold, but even then I felt the wind coming through my single-paned window. The heaters in our apartment are continuously on but somehow they don't circulate heat properly throughout the rooms. My hands are always cold and chapped. I have to put lotion on a few times a day usually. Last week it got to like 17 degrees fahrenheit and it even snowed a bit, but quickly melted. There is salt scattered all over the streets and walkways and even in the metro to prevent people from slipping. Luckily today the weather has gotten a little bit warmer (at least more tolerable) but I heard that it might snow a few more times this week. I wish it would just snow a few feet then stick so that I could skip school.
