Heads up: a strict security perimeter will be set up around Notre-Dame-de-Paris for its opening ceremonies.
Best to stay clear of the area from Dec4, on both sides of the island!
To watch the event (on screens) access from 3pm Saturday. To watch the first mass, access 8am Sunday.
Super important information right here ⬇️ #Paris #NotreDame
Ready, steady... go! From tomorrow, the online booking system will be operational on #NotreDame's website: notredamedeparis.fr/
I can't imagine how many of us behind our screen trying to get "a ticket" for the first vespers this Sunday...

Any ski operators out there still offering holidays in Bjelasnica? For @TeleSkiSnow and need a package asap. Most appear to have withdrawn Bosnia as an option ...

Keir Starmer will today become the first British prime minister since Winston Churchill to commemorate Armistice Day in Paris. Churchill is pictured with General Charles de Gaulle on November 11th, 1944 - less than three months after the city's liberation from Nazi occupation.
And a symbolic reminder of common values shared by #Paris2024 and @notredameparis - respect, friendship, fraternity, peace, joy.
Hier, @TonyEstanguet a remis au nom de @Paris2024 la cloche des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques à Monseigneur Ribadeau Dumas, recteur de la cathédrale.
Un moment symbolique autour des valeurs communes aux JOP et à Notre-Dame : Respect, Amitié, Fraternité, Paix, Joie.
Some good, old-fashioned happy news to ring in the weekend 💫 Seeking every tiny glint of light right now. Bravo #parisjetaime #France

"The footpath of lava rocks that I picked my way across with a guide back in July is already long gone, drowned in a new fireball sea of red lava that crashed down from Etna’s peak just weeks after I left."

Can vouch for #ski passes taking a bigger chunk out of the old ski budget this winter. I've just bought my season pass for @PDS_officiel #PortesduSoleil and yes, OUCH
The average price of day lift passes in the French Alps is up 4.6% for 24/25, from €42 to €43.58 #skistat

FLORENCE VS VENICE 🇮🇹
🎨 TEAM FLORENCE: “The artistic beauty and sensorial thrill of Florence is intense, soul-stirring and thrillingly sublime,” says Nicola Williams, the writer behind our Pocket Florence & Tuscany guidebook.
⛵TEAM VENICE: “When you arrive by boat across the Adriatic, you really appreciate how Venice is defined, shaped and built upon water," says Kerry Walker, who co-authored our Italy guidebook.

I'm utterly useless at sharing recent work published. Without further ado, sharing an article or book a day until I've caught up. The vicarious journey begins with a Tuscan road trip from @lonelyplanet's new #Florence & #Tuscany pocket guide 🇮🇹🚴♂️🚗lonelyplanet.com/articles/be…
