On the same trip (as below) i went to Paris for the first time, to visit my aunt. Lot of time spent wandering. The little girls washing their hands are in Pere Lachaise cemetery, one of the very best places to stroll amongst the very best dead: Handel, Isadora Duncan, Oscar Wilde (who had his grave made over in 1987 i think by an anonymous female "admirer" dunno what it was like before but now it's a block of towering concrete with scary angels..), "Jim"...
The statue of the embracing couple i'd like to say is Jardin du Luxembourg, but have a feeling it's this random park i found while on the way to somewhere else... that statue has haunted me for years.
Wish i had wings. Been watching the birds today..
