B/W au naturel... like that description.<br /><br />Bear -- She does look forlorn...<br /><br />Holly -- It was both cold and rainy but made for great photos... no such thing as a bad day in Paris!<br /><br />Laurent -- Lucky guess (and I checked weather.com) I'll send you an email.<br /><br />Harriet -- Gray days, sunny days, hot days, rainy days... all good in Paris, n'est-ce pas?<br /><br />Rob -- What a great memory and the gardens are a superbe place for wandering...<br /><br />Virginia -- I'll be taking a small p&s (actually an underwater camera) so if it pours I'll be ready just the same!<br /><br />Sylvia -- Merci for your comments. I only hope that I will be lucky to see the rare snow in Paris.... Did I just say that?!<br /><br />Malyss -- I think that she is covering from the rain. Je t'en pris.<br /><br />Sara Louise -- It is hard to choose because I have three that "speak to me" but Tuleries is in that group.<br /><br />Starman -- I think that the marble ones cannot be neglected for long (100 years?) It was encouraging to see much cleaner statues in Peter's photos.<br /><br />Loree -- I agree and think that four years would not be enough. I think about places I have visited for 4, 5, or 6 days as a tourist checking off the sights one-by-one, knowing that I really did not give that city a chance.<br /><br />Birdman -- I think that we need to hear from our friends "down under"... surely they have some better warmer weather!<br /><br />Paul -- With the staining on her arms, it made me think "acid rain" -- It does seem desolate.<br /><br />Indie-Tea -- Merci beaucoup... It's nice to see you here again and I'll hop over for a visit with you, too.<br /><br />Dianne -- The cleaning is probably not performed by the green-suits but someone skilled in artifacts or marble. Hummmm... I wonder...<br /><br />JM -- Many thanks, friend.<br /><br />THANKS FOR ALL THE COMMENTS! I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ALL DAY...
