Porte -- Rue des Capucines



First cousin to the lions at Hôtel de Ville,
this one seems a bit grumpy...

    You might feel grumpy too if you were trapped on a wall or door, instead of sitting in the open air.

    Fun photo, Genie.

    Hello Genie:
    Now this is something we can rival several times over in Budapest. And many of our lions are smiling, or licking their lips!!

    Grumpy or not, he is a handsome guy. He looks more worried than grumpy to me. Having spent four days out in the bush where the lions roam, I can understand why they would be worried. For the wild animals, every day is a life or death experience.

    I love the doors in Paris whether they are blue or not. You can often discover some beautiful details.
