THE best ice cream is melon. Mmmm, DEEE-lich!
This building is the Luxembourg Palace and where the French Senate is held (I think).
There is the Orangerie on premise of the Jardins and inside was an art exhibit...of a stain glass maker! He used cement though to hold these pieces together...Oh, and they were mostly huge and thick! Really cool!
Lookee who I found?!
A game popular around the world and in France...Boules. It's just like Bocce ball in Italy.
Bee hives...
These were strange, but I guess done for a purpose! Paper bags were tied around budding apples and pears in this orchard...when they got large enough, they would break through.
There are just over one hundred statues, fountains and monuments in the Jardin.
And lots and lots of space to rest on the grass in between the shelter of trees...
All parks here have dirt like this where people walk. There are no paved pathways. Makes shoes very dirty!
The stained glass exhibit seems quite amazing. Your pic of the people lying down on the grass between trees......the perfect rhythm.
