In the 12ième we have seen them being carried on the street, presumably a short distance. Nevermind the Métro, if your apartment does not have a lift, you will be carrying the French Charlie Brown up many, many stairs!<br /><br />Alexa, now those would be some busy caterpillars - how funny!<br /><br />When you see the trees grouped together like this, it reminds me of a crowd of people (mummies?)<br /><br />Bises,<br />GenieGenie -- Paris and Beyondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12758801373365481655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055676571236633849.post-73334571211653451632014-12-17T22:04:00.438-04:002014-12-17T22:04:00.438-04:00With a friend it might not be too bad.With a friend it might not be too bad.Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14324315351283229508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055676571236633849.post-86763444861583073252014-12-17T17:07:43.638-04:002014-12-17T17:07:43.638-04:00Beautiful post!

They seemed to never unfold correctly - and why would they after being cooped up like that? We finally got a fake one, and just replaced that one -- it lasted over 10 years -- with an upmarket fake one that is really beautiful. That way we can keep it up for, say, two months!Betty Carlsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155852272383173880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055676571236633849.post-67447944758778657372014-12-17T14:28:02.625-04:002014-12-17T14:28:02.625-04:00When I saw these, I thought of those caterpillars ...When I saw these, I thought of those caterpillars that weave a web around an entire tree.

It always seemed funny to live in a grand place in Paris and then have a Charlie Brown tree.
