marseille under the snow
Marseille has pretty mild weather. It drops into the 50’s during the winter, but with the exception of the FUCKING Mistral, a horrendous fucking wind that makes everyone crazy and stay inside (think Santa Ana winds but cold!)
bref, it never snows. It’s not that cold here. Think Northern California weather….
Now on January 6th, I woke up to this
WTF!
Now, being a veteran of Montreal snow systems, I foolishly thought that a little snow wouldn’t hamper my bus to work. How wrong was I.
Marseille freaked out by closing all the highways and cancelling all buses for 3 DAYS. 3 DAYS PEOPLE!!!! My clients in Canada and Scandinavian countries thought it was ridiculous.
I, however, did enjoy it not working for 3 days! 
Alex and I ventured out to go shopping (first day of the soldes!!) and enjoyed the quiet.
