I was working in Paris from 1953 to 1958. One year, I think it might
have been 1956 or 1957, Spring was late, but arrived very suddenly. Ice
near the source of the Seine broke free and careered down the river and
arrived unmelted in Paris where it all banged up against the piers of
the bridges and accumulated there, unable to get further. It must have
made a trip on the bateaux mouches quite interesting.
Anyone know which year that would have been?
