Photo Essay: R.I.P. in Paris
On one of the sunniest mornings during my stay, my lovely American expat friend and I went wandering through the famed Père Lachaise cemetery. If you are interested in cobbled walkways and sad, beautiful stories, may I suggest a visit? Oscar Wilde is buried here, so you know it’s gotta be awesome (though, quite frankly, his tomb is supremely weird looking and surrounded by glass, apparently to fend off all the kisses).
Loving the photos? If you haven’t already, join me on Facebook for more.
All photos taken with my lovely little Lumix.

Fantastic photos! Thanks so much for sharing! Better keep that camera! You are so talented! I love that you take your little Toto with you. He/she is a cutie. Enjoy the show in London.

I’d not considered it before but, old cemeteries are great spots for sculpture – like the playful post title too.
