I love pere lachaise cemetery! When I was there, The Doors movie had just come out and everyone was making a pilgrimmage to Jim Morrison's gravesite. The rest of the cemetery was so peaceful and beautiful though. I'll be back....
I too spent one of my favourite days in the cemetery. It's solitude and quiet compared to the rest of Paris is idyllic on a sunny day.
fab shots Nancy! I adore old boneyards!
And now that volcanic ashes are ruling your life you can go back, you lucky girl!! Did you know there is a huge DOG cemetary in Paris?
I love these photos. I think I want to go to Paris just to go to Pere Lachaise Cemetery - well, the flea markets, too.
I didn't think I'd ever find a cemetary to be beautiful, but this is.
WOW!!! Look at all the beauty you have shared with us today. Gorgeous.
