Snow Day in Paris

It SNOWED! I thought it never snowed in Paris but I was proven very wrong recently. My mom and I spent the past couple of days in Paris before she took me to Nantes and it must have snowed at least 3 inches while we were there. My family hosted a French exchange student, Amelie, for a few weeks over the summer and to return the favor to my family, Amelie's mom made sure to show us around the city she calls home for the two days we were visiting Paris. Amelie's mom is a petite and very traditional Taiwanese woman. She is determined and disciplined and has the most endearing mannerisms! Her determination shone through as she ambitiously gave us a tour of Paris. She walked us through the Louvre and the Petit Palais, then down the Champs Elysees and trekked us to the Centre Pompidou. We saw the Pantheon and the Academie Francaise, Notre Dame and soo much more. When my mom and I were getting cold or tired, we would tell her that she was doing too much and it wasn't necessary she would patiently reply, "It give me preasure to do dis for you, you have done so much for Amerie." So we would swallow our complaints with a smile and continue on our grand tour of Paris.
In the end though, I am very have had such an enthusiastic guide who crammed as much as she did in those two snowy days. Paris is such a beautiful city, and it looked so serene by the light of a snowy evening-how many tourists get to see that?
