During our walk through Jardin de Tuileries' we all admired the beautiful spring flowers. Jean spoke to a gardener to congratulate him on his efforts. When Robert came along, he admired the beautiful iris so he produced a perfect stem that must have been broken off and gave it to him to present to the beautiful lady.
Being in a dilemma, he recounted the story and gave the flower to Gail. She agreed that must have been the gardener's intention.
A little later we sat on a seat to rest and as each Parisian walked by, they gave Gail a filthy look...... Obviously they take a dim view of the tourists stealing the flowers!
Shortly after, we placed the iris on one of the sculptures in the garden.... a modern bronze of a beautiful lady.
I always knew you were a bad seed.
ReplyDeleteI nearly spat my lunch all over the monitor as I laughed at that story. At least getting an iris might make up for missing the waterlillies.
ReplyDeleteWe are still avoiding the gendarmes.
